Question Luggage

I was sold on Kuryakyn luggage, till I compared to the HD luggage (Multi-Fit Touring System w/ Day Bag). I think there both equal in quality, but HD is quit a bit less in cost. I'm just worried the systems aren't big enough to grow into? My buddy mentioned T-Bags, so I went and checked out there site and liked what I saw. Any kind a input on T-Bags would be great!

When I got my bag - the T-bags were on a slow boat from China - literally! We were leaving on a trip and I went with my second choice was the Kuryakyn Grand Tourer. I really like this bag! big enough for the wife & I for a week trip. It expands to carry the extra T-shirts home. I like the extended handle and can wheel it.

Have T-Bag's Roller Dekker. Very pleased with it's outcome, but somewhat pricey which I didn't care. Plan on keeping it as long as I ride my Ultra. Read their testimonials as I was convinced. Now, I am one happy T-Bag customer.

Good Luck,

Thorey

This is the one I bought.


It fits on the back seat of my ultra and if you notice (and on both sides) the bottom outside pocket is angled so it doesn't rub the speakers. Has backpack straps and integrated rain cover. I can get stuff for 5+ days in this and still have room left over. Best bag I have used...I have a Kuryakyn round back that goes on my tour pack bracket...but I will probably never use the thing unless I was going to be going for several weeks.

I got the Tbags Route 66 bag a few months ago when Tbags was having a 20% off sale. Great bag and holds a ton. Also got the saddle roll to go on top.

Plus you can even use it as a cooler, there's an ice liner available.

I got this one also. Got enough in it for the wife and myself for 9 days of riding. Still had a little room for souveniers.

Well went down to the stealership today and saw that they carried T-Bags. We compared both and decided to go with the HD brand. Thanks for all the input guys.

Slowrain.......Sweet bag!!!
I like the fact that it doesn't hit the rear speakers, I have a Nelson Rigg GWS-500,
hauls alot of stuff, well made and NR website even shows it mounted on an Ultra.
First time I used it, it broke right through the rear speaker grills.
At about $40 to replace them.....lesson learned.
NR came out with a smaller version. But when you buy a $100 plus bag you need to use it.
So I now just remove the rear speaker pods, a little bit of a hassle, but now I don't
have to worry about the bag hurting my speakers.
If I have a chance to pick up one like yours....I'm on it.
