Man those look sweet. I have a white "S" also so I now know exactly what they look like. My issue is I am pretty busted up and think I need something I can pull off easily and just put them on when I need them. That said you are making it tough on me to not figure out how to work around my issues. I don't think anything else looks near as good as those do.

Yes that's perfect. Based on that view I'll be ordering mine. One more clarification - They do fit with the passenger backrest correct?
Thanks, Rick

yes the grab bars are still there.

That is good to hear. Seems like a very good, if a bit pricey, set up.
I wonder how my FJR bag liners will fit!

Would you be able to describe or post some pictures of what you did to be able to use the OEM passenger backrest with the Corbin Saddlebags? I'm waiting on my saddlebags to arrive at the end of this month and any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!!

Corbin changed their design so all you have to do is mount them as per instructions. It was really easy, it only took me about an hour maybe a little more.

Nice Saddlebags
Corbin makes a nice looking set of saddlebags. I'm glad that the aftermarket has something for you guys with the F3 Spyders. I'm waiting it out to see what the new 2016 F3-T and F3 Limited saddlebags look like. In the pictures they look to be longer than the Corbins but no deeper or wider. Time will tell when I get to see them in person.

Now they are back at the dealership waitng on an answer from Corbin on how to move forward. For 2K, these things should be perfect. I hope that Corbin does the right thing here and rectifies this in a timely

Mine was exact as the above one. Left side looks like came out wrong, does not latch well with gap, if you push your finger in it, lid will open.
corbin tried to fix, then sent a new left side one. About 6 weeks.

LeatherWorks 120 Saddlebags
Just finished ordering my new F3-S from my local Can-Am dealer here in Bavaria. I cancelled my wish for the BRP CC saddlebags after seeing how small they were. I couldn't even fit my inserts that I've used on my ST LTD in to the bags! So I ordered the LeatherWorks 120 black leather bags with the EasyBracket mounting hardware. They came to 1/2 of what the smaller BRP bags would have run, and look pretty cool on the website pics. Will put a pic up as soon as I mount them, when my new Spyder arrives, end of Jan 2016!
Best from Bavaria! Rick

First, I think the Can Am Saddlebags look good on the bike, but for what they offer they seem way overpriced to me? And those Corbins look great! I don't even want to ask what they cost?
Here's a lower priced fix that I've been using. A pair of Yamaha Star Raider saddlebags that I had laying around. If memory serves I paid $225 for them, had to also buy a chrome bracket to install first, before mounting the bags. Walked by them one day and thought "they wouldn't look bad on the F3s?" Held the mounting bracket up next to the Spyder and the mounting holes were very close, 10 minutes with a round file and the brackets bolted right onto the Spyder. I ran the leather cross strap under the passenger seat, and in less than 1/2 an hour had my simple and very inexpensive bag solution in action. Total cost for me was zero dollars, but even if you had to buy a pair from a Yamaha dealer, you would come in way under $300 total.
OldDog mentioned in this thread that Leatherlykes should also work, and I think that they would also be an inexpensive alternative to the Can Am bags.
I'll try to put a couple of photos at the end of this, just in case any of you have some of these Star bags laying around as I did.
