The extended bags didn't look that bad, it probably bothered me more than anyone else. I doubt most even would notice.

My extended bags must’ve fallen over at least a dozen times.

I do miss the extra bit of storage the extended bags offered. My RKS is my daily transportation and my rain suit fit right down I that little corner pocket.

If it floats your boat then go for it, don't try silly justifications
