Just received my Champion Hard bags and replaced my National bags, man what a size difference, the National, fit inside the Champions and the look is much better. The only thing I did not  like was that the instructions suck and the parts list was incomplete. Other than that they are high quality.

I may sell them it depends on if the fit on the wife's bike, if its too much to modify then they will go up for sale.

Santa

Yes, they are predrilled, except for the bottom bracket, you have to shape it uglystupid2 and drill the holes in the bottom of the bags, the hardes thing of that is getting the bracket to line up evenly with the bags (left to right).

Alph,

I will post the picture tonight, do not have access from work to the pics. They are the same or almost the same as OEM, that was one of the appealing feature of the bags.
