Got them on, and YES all fits !
Sorry about the bad picture...there is no proper lighting in my garage, and it was pointless to take her out as it was getting dark outside too.





Edit: Would have preferred a bit smaller bags, but they aren't so easy to find. Will keep my eyes open for a pair of smaller, black, sturdy, real leather bags. As these are bolted on directly to the brackets, I can use almost any leather, fabric or canvas bags. But as is mentioned here before, for the price ( about 60$ or so ) these are good valua for money. Even if they are not real leather.

That is so true, backpack has it's uses and places and I generally do like wearing one. but not, when You have bigger/bulkier items in, or some heavier items. Especially on a longer ride.
Now need to go for a test ride and see how they feel and behave on higher speeds and on bumps etc.

One more picture of the actual carrier itself, and one of the sideparts.
The bags are going to bolted to these "wings" , pushing the bags a bit out ( to clear shocks ) and forward ( to clear indicators ).

Installed DK Customs relocation kit and headlight with visor. Did not like the exposed wires coming down from the handlebar controls so reinstalled the stock headlight brow so hide the wires.
