Default extended bags
I am thinking of getting extended bags(not extensions)&nbsp\\; I’ve been looking at Gator boxes and Baddad’s bags. Anybody have any experience with either of these?&nbsp\\; What are your thoughts on quality?&nbsp\\; TIA

I ordered one piece bags Wed, was told they would ship Wed and I would get a tracking number from FedEx.&nbsp\\; I never got a tracking number so I emailed the company I ordered them from(Will remain namelss for now) they said the FedEx truck broke down Wed but they would be picked up today and I would get the tracking info directly from them...I ship via FedEx everyday and I know if my driver has a problem another one will stop by to cover him...something sounds fishy to me but I am still being optimistic

Have Bad Dad's Stretched Bags.&nbsp\\;Great guys to work with. Haven't experienced any scraping at all. The rear is lowered about 1". Naturally, I'm careful around corners.....but a friend of mine who rode behind me says I have plenty of clearance.

I would love to have extended bags, but can't afford them right now, plus I'd be scared about dragging them......see picture below:
