Saddlebags & Leather...Your Thoughts?
I found a google pic of some awesome looking bags. Miked here in the community has some older style RK customs that look great...but I want something more durable and in the back of mind, the idea of getting someone to leather over a hard bag instead. Problem was I couldn't find hardly any bags that wasn't generic nor square looking. I may have found the answer...
If I do decide to go bagger, duals would be switched over to.
Now who makes these bags?

I have RK custom bags on my FB. They are plastic that is wrapped in leather. I have had no issues with them. Got rear ended and all I had to do is heat one of them a little and push the dent back out. Can not even tell. My biggest complaint is they are easy to get fingernail scratches on the lids. I was thinking of getting old FL bags and getting the wrapped like you until I talked to a local leather guy. He told me not to do it and if I did it would cost me.

IMO the leather stretched over something just don't seem natural. Same as the "got saggy bags" make the Heritage bags look.
I prefer the natural leather look of Heritage bags or even better IMO the "Heritage Springer bags", which I think is the best looking bag of ALL.
