Looks a little too "metric" for my taste. You might find some interested parties but I doubt it will be on this forum.......just guessing based on the subtle comments left by others.


RJ - Out.

Sergio,
I have had NOTHING but NOTHING for after sales service from Corbin. Stupidly, after trying on 4 different occasions to buy a saddle, I gave up and will NEVER consider Corbin again. All I found were pathological liars on the other end of the phone AFTER you got my money. I never recieved a saddle the way it was ordered.
Does it sound like I am a little steamed ????
Yea,
Morpheus

ORIGINAL: Puzzled

Build an affordable aftermarket tour pack that retains the use of ALL of the HD accessories. (there is one company that I know of already)

How about a replacement lid for existing hard bags that are slightly taller or even curved to match the contour of the fender. (I recall seeing one somwhere, yours maybe?)
SERGIO,
I like the lid idea.

Damn if those bags weren't designed for a Yama Stratoliner and the HD
baggers as an after thought.
Real ugly,and sure to give your bike that Metric look.

Iv'e been thinking about get'n the strecthed bags for a few months now and the more and more i see them,they seem to take away from the harley original styling esp with that wide azz fender that covers up everything.They look good on some custom baggers iv'e seen but i'll think imma pass on them.JMHO

They look... metric- which is to say- overdone. (Metric designers can't figure out what makes a Harley a Harley, so they overdo it with swoopy fenders and gaudy trim in an effort to imitate.) Victory, unfortunately, has fallen into the same trap, but that's another discussion entirely.
Those bags are very much like what you'd find on a Yamakawa-Hondazuki Visionwing.

You would likely get a more favorable response from the Victory and metric forums as IMO most HD riders are a bit more conservative, i.e. traditional and/or old fashioned.
But at least you're trying, and asking for input from the end user is a good idea...
