hey all...any websites i should check to get the best deal on moto luggage? normally i rely on newenough but it seems they really aren't that cheap on luggage...

What type of luggage you after?
My guess is you're interested in something different from a tank bag or tail pack as New Enough (http://www.newenough.com/product_group_misc_luggage.htm) seems to be offering a lot of these at relatively decent prices. (For grins I visited Dennis Kirk, Motorcycle Accessories Warehouse, and Competition Accessories and New Enough seems to beat them on common articles.)
But if you're looking for saddle bags or larger bags, I agree, there aren't any obvious deals. Guess we need to look harder.
tonker.com has some good deals if you know the coupons. They have a Joe Rocket sale - Enter JOE ROCKET in the coupon area at check out. Ricks Rides, BAB and Volusia are others.
Does anyone have any suggestions for a bag that fits well with the GS500? I'm looking for something the size/shape of a duffel bag. I tried strapping my gym bag to the back one day and by the time I got where I was going, the bag was hanging halfway off of the bike .... not good. haha. I obviously didn't strap it down well enough.
I'd second that recommendation for tonker.com. I was visiting a friend in Ft. Lauderdale and decided to rent a Buell. Dropped by tonker's office down there and picked up a new helmet to ride with - their prices were great and they were quite friendly.

yep saddlebags / tailbag combo...i just need to buy a set before i have to give kerry's back...so preferably the tourmaster cortech set since i'm already used to using them and they've been awesome so far...

Did you look at Terra Powersports (http://www.terra-powersports.com/browse.aspx/sid/1/catp/54/cat/81) yet?
well...looks like the cheapest i can hope for from the tourmaster saddlebags is $144...thats without the tailbag too :?
joe rocket has saddlebags the same size for a lot cheaper ($109!) but they dont come with a heat shield...anyone have experience with the rocket stuff? or should i just suck it up and go with the tourmaster stuff...kerry, how much did you get yours for?

I don't remember exactly (it was 4 years ago) but probably around $150 for just the saddlebags. They constitute one of the few items that I actually bought from the display at the dealer. :o
Hey, I had only been riding a year, and there was no GStwin, and ... and ... sigh.
