Title: WTB some saddlebags
Post by: Firewalker on August 24, 2010, 05:37:35 PM
Would like to have just a little storage room and wanted to see if anyone had some gear laying around before I bought a new set.  Say you went from nylon to hard bags or you just have a habit of buying stuff and replacing it before it's needed?  Compulsive shopper???

Let me know if you have any or suggest any that don't require a frame.  Thanks in advance.....Hope everyone is doing well.

Scott,
I have a set of soft bags that work great on  the GS. I have moved up to a cruiser, so I just have them sitting in my garage. I have no idea what theyre worth, and Ill send you some pictures shortly. (I have to go take them!) Then you can decide if theyll work for you.

Hey there, that is pretty much what I had in mind.  Are they black?  A couple pics that show condition of yours would be great.  Let me know how much you are looking to get for them.

Thanks for the reply.

Scott :cheers:

I do have pictures, they are black, and in excellent condition. I was thinking about what Mary got them for, $65. I need a luggage rack for my cruiser!  :icon_lol: (http://i181.photobucket.com/albums/x218/ssinema/IMG_0231_1.jpg)

Are the heat shields included on them or is that padding in the last pic?

Part of the shield is the padding in the last pic, but thats more to protect your paint. There are heat shields built into the bottom of each bag (you can kind of see it in the first picture)
