Saddlebags for 2020 Rocket

Ya know you're getting old when you see these bags and you think: "Barn! That's about what I paid for my brand new BMW R90S Daytona Gold!"

Not only are they expensive they are ugly. Looks like the design requires the awful tail tidy and what does the scaffolding look like to support them? I will pass on these and wait to see what other companies will offer.

Looks good! But man, you gotta snip length off of those straps!!

the straps are kept long so you can loosen them, put a jacket or aroll bag on top of the bag then cinch down the strap again. This is designed like this because the bags are not very big.

I dont mean to be picky but ive looked at your brackets for your bags. I think the way you have mde them if your 2 up and go over some had bumps the rear whell will hit them. I made mine similar to the Triumph ones made them from stainless. I sweped them away so there is no way the tyre will hit them.....

Oh ok. Never have seen that before.

I have the same Leatherworks bags on my Roadster. The extra length of the straps can be folded under the bag and slid into a fastener designed to hold them. Been using mine like that for years.

Take a peek under the bags to see where the straps can be slipped into place.
