Soft bags for the Spyder: Anyone know who makes those? When I get bags...

... that's what I want. That way when we travel, I can have them on. Around town, they come right off. There's a girl in California that has some on her Spyder. And, they look really nice! I saw the photos on the Ryder site.

Not to mention, they have to be much less than the $1700 that the Corbin's cost. When I mentioned the price tags of the Corbins to my wife, I thought she was going to choke on her beer. :shocked:

Here they are....

Large soft bags are nice for carrying stuff, but they leave the passenger pegs unusable. I used the Nelson Rigg Silver Streak mini bags and they keep passenger pegs accessible. Available in silver for silver Spyder and black for yellow. Don't carry as much (basically stores our rain gear), but my wife has a place for her feet.

950 is the larger size. How do they work with the passenger pegs?

 

[gregc]

they work fine with pegs. For 110.00 you cant beat them.

I sort of agree...

I also bought NR CL 950 saddle bags and roll bag from New Enough, but I will say that if you get any of the larger ones like these or the Cortech, just flip them around and that fancy upsweep is now a cutout for the passenger legs.

We rode all the way to Canada with our bags on the "right way."

Stopped at a rest area on the way home and in two minutes flipped the bags around the "wrong way" (big deal: the reflector faces forward) and got mucho credit from my lovely bride (5' 10" tall) for giving her more comfort on the return ride...

Also, NR sent me extender straps so that they could wind under the passenger seat OR wrap around the the grab bars, which was great customer service I thought.
