Cool warning sticker on your frame bro...

 

[Blastonia]

Thanks. I scoured the country for that elusive little item.

Rest your feet on the passenger pegs? Do your ride facing the back?

 

[Abledcool1]

Nice, do those lock?

 

[Lesley]

Passenger pegs? What's that?

Good looking bags btw. I like the look [up]

I stretch out across the tank and put my feet on the rear pegs while riding down the interstate. Its comfy for me and there isnt any traffic during the hours im on it. Cant do that with the bags on it. Im surprised no one has identified the bags. They are KLR bags. Unfortunately they dont lock. I got tired of trying to find the buell bags so i tried these. They seem to work petty good. No flopping around. I havent hit triple digits with them yet. So far so good.

I had soft bags on my bolt, they worked great but will not fit on my new ducati..the pipes will burn them like they do my a$$!!!

 

[Blastonia]

What kind of ducati? i was looking at a 916 before i got my 12s. Love the bike but didnt think it would work well for my commute.

1098s . its a awsome bike but the firebolt was a better all around bike. ducati is itallian for nut crunching wrist breaking torcher device.
wish I could have kept it but it was so expencive I needed to sell my buell to pay just less than 1/2.
heres my bolt with the bags.

Chevnut55, you sell the bags? Would be interested in them if they're in reasonable condition...

 

[Blastonia]

Nice bolt. Id like to get a tank bag. Do tthey mark up the airbox cover much? i rode home one night with a 20 lb bag of dog food across the cover and it really did a number on it. It was peppered with marks. It took some elbo grease to buff it back to a shine.

 

[chevnut55]

Sorry. it works on the wifes bike. they are not too expencive new. too me it was a waste because I never got to use them.
The tank bag I used all the time. The trick it to take the magnets out so they do not pick up meatle dust and clean the tank and under the bag every time you use it.
Im still using it on my 1098s and I just bought a universal tail bag..since the ducati bag is not big enought to put my hand in.
I used the tank bag to get dog food too,I have 5 cars but used my bike to go shopping.

 

[Blastonia]

Lol my last bike was a concours with a trunk. Great grocery getter. I could get 8 grocery bags on that thing.

those KLR bags fit the Buell nicely, good find[up]

 

[Rhino1]

Those KLR bags look really good on there...

 

[Blastonia]

Thanks. Im happy so far. Had it up to a buck twenty today, no noticable flopping.
