Title: Where to buy Cortech tri bags?
Post by: GSrookie500 on September 24, 2008, 03:14:09 AM
Hi, I haven't posted here in awhile, but I've been doing alot of searching on here about the Cortech tri bags, but didn't find out where to buy them. Can someone recommend a place with a low price of course. :icon_mrgreen:

I checked on ebay for them too and found the lowest for new was $155 shipped. Is this good? :dunno_white:

hmm, tri bags, i assume that means the saddlebags and the tank bag ? (sorry, im not familiar)

check on craigslist. there is usually a set coming up for sale around the cooler months of the year. i got a set of saddle bags for $35 in used but good condition. they were older bags labeled tourmaster instead of cortech, but work fine.

do you mean the bags that can be either a tail bag or saddlebags? I just got this:  http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/4/71/5580/ITEM/Tour-Master-Cortech-Sport-Tailbag.aspx 
 And it can be either, and is quite large. Not sure what kind of rack you would need to mount saddlebags on the GS tho.. 

wait...here you go:   http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/4/71/5581/ITEM/Tour-Master-Cortech-TriBag-Tail-Bag.aspx

I think the Tribag tailbag just clips into the Tribag saddle bags like the Sport tail bag, but I haven't found a good discription though.

Yeah I found him the tribag, and my sportbag tailbag has clips that look like they would attach to something like other saddlebags like you are describing.

I was talking about the tail and saddle bags together. I found the saddle bags and tail bag, new, for $155 shipped

I checked out that site for the same bags, and they wanted $140 just for the saddles, and $60-$80 for the tail bag, depending which one you get.

That $155 on ebay doesn't seem so bad now.
