I think CamTech has some really good stuff and I plan to use their tank/side cover kit. The little arrow/triangle they mold into some of their pieces doesn't excite me though. Presently I'm planning to go Bad Dad for bags and rear fender. Considering FBI for rear fender.

I saw an add for the baddad and was surprised to find out they are only 45 minutes from where I live. I have only heard good things about them I have not decided if I want to do stretched bags or not cause I don't want to be dragging in corners. My only concern with the baddad is the stretch is 4 1/2 inches which is kinda long. I would look into sinister industries I thought those were a great option too. So many company's to chose from! So good luck.

I went with Top Shop bags and Baddad fender. The exhaust didn't match up great at first but Top Shop remade the bags for me and now they're sweet! Excellent customer service. They went above and beyond to make it right. Not their fault at all but they made it work. Those guys are great!!!
