Firebolt Saddlebags

[claytucc3]

I have been doing research and I am having a difficult time finding Saddlebags for this bike. I mainly use it to commute to and from work and would love to get the backpack off of my back. Any suggestions?

BTW....I am a new Buell owner and this is my first post......cheers

welcome to the form.
I have and like my cortech bags

Really need rear pegs to keep them pushed out off the tire.

was a lightening with a bolt tail

I second the cortechs

Cool, I will look into the Cortech's. Those blue ones match your bike well. I have the red and gold Firebolt so I think black would look best for mine.

They have zipout expanders and get huge.
I easily can get a week and half of colthes and extr shoes in them

Now he can take even more with him since he bought the matching tailbag that is just as big... YAY now he can carry my clothes! haha

RT did you get the sport tail bag? or the round Tribag System?
I need a tail bag first before i get saddle bags. need it to hold my lunch (cold) for when i ride my Buell to work. right now all have is regular small soft sided collapsible insulated lunch cooler.(like what you can buy at walmart) I just tie it down to the passenger seat so it doesn't move in any direction. looks crazy and takes a few minutes to tie and untie it.
sorry dont mean to hijack the thread!

I bought the sport tail bag after seeing a friends at the dragon ride.
You can clip it on into the sport saddles to make a try bag.
It has a lot of room. The built in bungees are quick to install or remove.
Haven't actully used it yet just finishing my 1125r valve adjustment.

Thanks guys, I will most likely be getting a set of the Cortechs. Are they big enough for a helmet or just a little too small?
