I have been looking into the leatherworks 110's for my Deluxe and now have come across the Dakota USA line of saddlebags. The Dakota 301's look very nice and also have abs in the lids to keep them from sagging.....
Does anyone have any of these bags? And any comments on them? They are a little different looking than the Leatherworks bags, and a little more expensive, but I like the abs under the lids idea, and they also work with "easy brackets". You can compare them both athttp://www.greatbikegear.com
Tell me what you think.
Thanks, Jon

 

Cant say anything about the bags, but I love the easybrackets which allow for easy install and lightning fast on and off. It'll be important if you like to have the bags off most of the time like I do. I use the bags often but only for trips where I need storage, so on/off is very important to me. Also good to have the abs, otherwise you'll spend another $100+ eventually for
add-ons to fix. Good Luck

 

They both look good to me.....Whatever you get please post some picks....After I get a seat, they are next on my list......

 

I do like them both, but just want to see if anyone has the Dakota USA bags and any comments on them.

I ordered these for my deluxe. I like the matching pattern. I can't speak for the Dakota, but researched the Leatherworks extensively and liked what I read.

 

Please post some pics when you get them on.....Thanks.....

Sure thing. It will be a good example since I also have a Black Pearl Deluxe. They are suppost to ship on the 4th.
