Default Heavyhitter stretched bags?

Anyone have these? Do they match up with little tweaking? How do they sound?

Pickard baggers just installed a set here in Dallas, I'm going to go check it out, looks like the subs are Kenwoods. the cost is $2000.00. I would probably put my own in if I went that rout, which is what I'm thinking. Strected Bags= $800.00 2 subs= $150.00. they are charging double that, the only thing you are getting is the built in sub hole.

Nope. I ended up make a similar system using the stock bags. I made a glass enclosure inside the bag and put a 6" JL sub in each bag. Not that good. Very little bass while sitting still and non existent bass while riding highway speeds. I knew that going in, but was hoping for more while cruising slower speeds and while stopped. IMO not worth the cost. Better to go with 6x9 and get some bass with voice coil as well. Or maybe an spl 8" sub.

Right now I have the 6" subs in each bag and a 6x9 in each lid. I also have 6.5 in the fairing. 6.5's and 6x9's being pushed by pbr 300x4 and subs by 300x2. Sounds good at highway speeds and sounds killer when park and bike shut off.

How much bag space did you lose? I'm very interested in this but need the storage space too for the wife's junk.

Those Heavy Hitter bags look.....well, HEAVY! Monday I'm going by pickard to listen to the duel 10" subs. I'm going to get a video of them in action. My concern about getting 10's is, not having vocal while riding, I'll spend more time riding than parked. This is what is making me want the 6x9 set up. Maybe if I add a EQ to bring out more fidelity, I will be happy.
