The bags in my sic pic are leatherworks. I can't remember which model number they are but I really like them. Very well made and plenty of room.

Keep us posted, I was just looking at Leatherworks bags on there website the other day. I like the fact that they mount close to the bike, unlike the ones that use those "Ghost Brackets" or "Easy Brackets". If people give them good reviews I will be ordering a set soon.

IronAss, do you have any better pics of the bags, and how they mount? This saddlebag stuff is all new to me.

I got nothing with me. I'm on the road and won't be home for a few more weeks. That's the soonest I could take any pictures for you Sorry.

I've got mine mounted with EZ Brackets so I can remove them quickly but you can just bolt them straight onto the struts as well.

Yup. Usually is on most bolt on bags. Throw over's are usually all leather and you use supports that bolt to your struts to keep them off the frame/wheel.
