    Why can’t I find the 3 bag system on their website? Can somebody point me in the right direction?

    I liked and bought their arc combo for and DRL lights. Good customer service, questions answered, quality hardware and plug and play.
    I would buy from them again.

    I just logged onto their site and it’s right there for $699 preorder. Try either using a laptop or I pad. Look at “all items for Ryker”. Take the time to read the installation instructions. It has some good pictures

    They originally said last month that they were going to be offering that as a 2 tier option. You could get the side bags or the tail bag and then add on with the other option at a later time. Now it looks like its a one and done set up.
    Not crazy about that.

    Many good products but a word of caution; the new convex mirrors are almost impossible to remove once installed. The entire back side is covered with double side tape. I recommend removing about half of it before installation which leaves plenty to hold it. It is a good product but be sure that it's really what you want before installing. It just didn't work for me but that is not a criticism of the product.

    I was planning on getting them this Spring. I already have Lamonsters above-the-handlebar mirrors which I use the majority of the time and love. But I kept the stock bar end mirrors on for extra viewing angles. I think adding the convex mirrors onto those will be perfect.

    Never purchased from Slingmods. When the website first appeared, and it seems this way still, Slingmods is not making items, but rather is an online shop for other companies products.

    Is there any advantage to purchasing from Slingmods vs any of the other vendors that sell the same items?

    I bought Fog lights and LED headlights they are a good company. Only slight issue I had was with some of the install videos/instructions were on an older model but it stated it was fully compatible with my model. I have a 2019 F3 and had to make some minor modifications for the installs, not a big deal though. I will still buy products from them.

    I hope you notified them about that shortcoming. Otherwise, they may never change those instructions.

    Slingmods might (does on many) sell the items for less than msrp from the mfr, where as the mfr "shouldn't" undercut their vendors. They also tend to skip/omit some things from their install videos. This can make the install look easier than it actually is. I found this 2x so far..

    That's interesting. I've found their "magic mirrors" and LED headlight installation videos to be very thorough, with accurate and detailed descriptions, and very well produced. What am I missing? Apparently I haven't seen any of their "skip/omit" videos.

    I think it depends on what year model you have. Troop and I have 2019 F3's and he helped me out on issue I had with the headlights install video. There is a bolt on the 19 nose piece that is not on the 18.You have to take off additional panels to get the nose piece off. Also for the ARC fog lights the switch did not fit in the dash (had to make hole larger)and could not fit the 3rd washer to bolt on the fog lights because the frame is in the way. However, these are just minor issues and I was able get them installed, just took some extra time and help from the great people on this forum..Thank you!!!
