Default Road King Classic "Leather" bags

Has anyone attempted to have their fake leather replaced with real leather? If you have, who did it for you and what to you think? I am a little unhappy about the durability of the fake stuff. Would real leather be better, probably not, but it won't look as funny when it wears.

Thanks for reading and Winter sucks!

Steve.

I'm not sure what you mean by fake?? The saddle bags on the RKClassic are plastic wrapped in real leather or at least mine are.

The leather on the stock RKC bags is not fake. Beware of anyone offering to replace it with "real" leather.

LOL. You can have you bags "customized" though. Check out my signature.

You can send your RKC bags to me along with a check for $500. In about a week, they will comeback to you covered in genuine leather.
