I have them on my RK.

I have used them on several long trips and they work great.

Well worth the money.

The wife likes them because she can slide her hands under the strap and brace herself when she gets tired.

Yup I have them and they work great. Protection for the lids and a place to cary extra stuff. You can leave them on for protection all of the time and just tuck the straps inside the bags.

Thanks, I will give them a try . They look good on your bike + I dont like to put too much weight on top of the tourpac with the missus on the back, Steering gets a bit too loose for my liking.

Anyone with a tourpack use these? From the web site it looks like the storage capacity is reduced with a tour pack installed. Still worth it?

Anyone interested in these check out M&M Cycle's ebay auctions. They sell the Lid Haulers and Lid Saks as a package for a nice price.

Even though I have a RoadKing, I put on a Tourpack on from time to time.

With the Tourpack on, the storge is reduced, if you read the website it says not for use on bikes with tourpacks. That said, they will work, just not as much stuff.

With out the tourpack I can carry A LOT of stuff and the bike handles better with the weight down low.

I do find the lid cover - straps a very nice combo to carry fishing poles ect.
