I use the soft liner bags. I wouldn't be without them. They work well and make removal of the saddle bags easy.

Soft liners are one of the few really good bargains. They're inexpensive and make it so much easier when packing for a trip.

I have the Harley luggage set. Very, very useful. I use them often. Much easier to pack and pull a bag out of the saddlebag.

Mine were included when I bought it, but knowing what I know now, I would buy them.

If you don't have the HD bags, there's another option that I saw down at Outer Banks Bike Week: http://www.storagepouches.com/#!__products

Same size and shape as the HD bags, but have the zipper around the edge so that you can open it like a suitcase.

Love my bag liners. Gt mine two years ago at outer banks bike week. Love the suitcase type opening. Great quality. Stay in my bags even when not traveling on a long trip. Don't think twice, get them, but consider the ones that open like a suitcase.

I use one of the saddlebag liners to pack clothes in. Makes it easy to carry into hotel. Sold one to a buddy since I only ever use one.

Left bag stays packed with rain gear etc so no need to take in or use a bag.

We use one of these bags between two bikes for dirty clothes. We just put our dirtys in it and every few days do laundry.

+1.......

Same here...

The saddlebags are for leather gear (chaps, gloves & jackets)/tools/rain gear...

The tour pack bag is mine and the girlfriend gets the bag on the luggage rack...

Just two bags to pull and carry into the hotel...
