What type of exhaust are you running? It makes a difference on what will fit. Are you looking for hard side or soft? Lots of choices out there, you need to narrow the search.

I bought used of this site. Saved over 50%. Leathworks are a great value for the price. Well made, thick leather... and not nearly as expensive as others. Many use detachable brackets, like easy brackets so the bags are on only as needed. Hard bags can cost a lot more when you consider adding the mounting kit and paint.
