    Default BRP SIDE BAGS

    I just completed the installation of the BRP rigid side bags (after waiting almost 2 weeks for delivery). The installation went very well considering the obvious omissions in the instructions. The pictures furnished by firefly were invaluable. The installation consumed 4 hours of my time but that included polishing my spyder after being all apart, sweeping the garage floor, and two cold BL's. Now I will probably be looking for a GIVI trunk to match.

    I would recommend this option to anyone. The quality, design, and fit is excellent. It gives the spyder a whole new personality, almost like having two motorcycles in one. The only shortcoming is the instructions and for the most part they are very good; it almost appears that a portion of the instructions were left out in the printing. You have to do a little reading between the lines and apply a little logic and if you do that they won't give you any problem. There is some valuable info on this site as to what to look out for, i.e Firefly and others.

    Good luck, if you decide to purchase. If I can help PM me.

    Put mine on a few weeks ago and I love them.

    Yeah, the instructions left out the replacement and installation of the two brackets that fit behind the new plastic vents on the rear black panels. A bit frustrating getting to the end of the directions and there are major parts left

    That said, great value for the price.

    They come as a complete kit - other than the color insert panels--- which you MUST order as they hold the reflectors on the back in place.

    I got mine from RobsPerformance.com

    I was quoted $850 for the bags and inserts shipping included from Mosites Motorsports. Ask for Brady and mention spyderlovers.

    Bags look great, but you're right....BRP left a lot to be desired on their instructions and pics. Firefly's posts were invaluable.
