Thanks to GTvtx and Gemini II for the tips on how to post links to the forum. Hopefully, this will work.

Here are some pics of the "Black GA Hard Saddlebags" from Mutazu for those who are interested. I know there were several who were curious about them, so if you're in the market, maybe this will help you make a decision one way or the other.

Incidentally, installation isn't too bad. If I can do it, anyone can. All you need is the right ratchet set, an hour or so, a little patience, and some forethought before you start drilling holes left and right. Oh yeah...you'll also likely need 2 8mm and 2 10 mm bolts (one of each for each fender strut). Just take the current bolts to Home Depot and tell someone you need the same size bolts but just longer.

Hope some of y'all find this helpful.

If memory serves, they were $174, delivered, including the mounting kit. You can check them out at http://www.mutazu.com. I believe the mounting kit was $30 with free shipping (on the kit) when purchased with the bags. I think they would probably work with Easy Brackets, as well, though I don't have the Easy Brackets, so I don't know for sure.

TCT - I'll work on getting a front and back shot tomorrow.

Naw, they weren't

EDIT -- Maybe I'll retract that. Heck those are inexpensive. I thought they would be well over 5 Franklins. I just looked at their website.

Those are some fine looking bags.
I’ve looked at their site before in the past.
I guess I just could not believe what they were offering for the price and passed it off.
Now, I’d like to see your bags in person. Seems my Valkyrie is begging for a pair of them.
PM me a time and your address or a place I can ride by and see them at your convenience.
Did you know Honda hard bags are $500 EACH?
