Cross Country Saddlebag delay

[kaamacat]

I might be in the minority, but I routinely take my bags off. Most of my riding is after work de-stress in the mountains, so I don't need or want bags hanging off my spyder. I like the "bare look" of the back end. Then a couple times a year, we take a weekend or week long road trip and I'd like bags. I think part of what makes me leave my bags on or take them off is the hassle factor. if it's a pain in the backside to get them on and off I'd do it less. Also if I've got ugly brackets showing when they're off, I'd be inclined to leave them on.

For me the OEM bags (which I ordered last Sept and finally got installed this week) work. It takes about 5 minutes to put them on or take them off, and there's nothing on the F3 that shows they were ever there.

:thumbup: They did a nice job on the mounting system, and they seem to be very stable when
mounted. Like you said, you really can't tell anything was there either.

I just got my saddlebags installed yesterday. They were ordered last October with the initial F3 orders. I got my F3S in late January so I feel the same pain you all are feeling. But at least they are beginning to be shipped.

I hope you all get yours very soon.

Now come on F4--That Blue Ridge windshield leaves a lot to be desired (if you are taller than 5').

Saddlebags on Shopatron

Can someone tell me if I ordered the bags on Shopatron would I have them sooner than if I waited until my dealer received them?
I ordered my bags through my dealer in February and they still don't have a ship date yet.
On Shopatron the bags say they are available.
Same issue happened to me with my ST trailer hitch.
My dealer thinks I am crazy!

I'll say this. Everything I have ordered from Shopatron since buying the F3 has arrived within one or two days. I would use them. Picked up the F3 March 17 and did not receive the bags from the dealer until May.

Here's another picture off of Corbin's website. They did say it was not a quick disconnect solution. Should be available this month or 1st part of July. Again nobody knows except........

Bags

QUOTE=Lamonster;981325]Looks like from what I just read that the orders will be filled as they become available but it's looking like early July before all orders are filled. After July they should have good stock. :doorag:[ QUOTE]

Got the call last night....bags are in! Now if I can only get some time to get over there to get them installed, Argh! BTW, ordered them when I bought the F3S on April 4th.
