G'day and welcome. Hepco Becker do make them for the Rocket, and they are good product. However, there are many bags available which can be attached with Ghost Brackets and other similar products, so don't limit yourself too much in your search.

Maybe have a look at ANDYBAGZ website. Aussie company that make really strong canvas saddlebags , and you wouldn't even need a supporting frame if you ran them. Pack up reasonably small for postage to wherever you are .. just a thought.

Hi Guys
Greetings from Namibia down in Africa.
I recently bought my first R3 and loves it more then my wife, shhhh she doesnt know it yet.
My problem is i need good looking and quality saddlebags, but being out in Africa getting some from the states is a big issue.
Can anyone advise or give me guidenss on making it your self, leatherwork is no problem its the mounting and design im struggling with.

well hello KOOS, and welcome
I was in your fine country recently stayed in windhoek and it RAINED!! was there to buy an aviation business but did not pan out so went to a farm to look at rhino! and drank the local brew loved every minutes of that trip including the beer !!

You can't just dip them in, you have to massage and rub it in for it to work properly.

Be careful, Jim will ask you to demonstrate!

Hank and Koos, Welcome to the wonderful world of the Rocket!!
Koos, I'm currently building my own rack (stainless steel) that I can put on/off in a few minutes. I'll send photos when I'm done. My plan is to throw a tunnel bag over when needed. Not sure if that will fit your intentions or not. If you can do your own leather work, might be a way to go if your shipment limited, but can get access to a welder and some bolts.
