Years ago a rider from North Carolina came to a couple of my fall color rides in Robbinsville, NC . He had these Kawasaki saddlebags on his Valk and they looked pretty good. Just saw these on the Knoxville, Tennessee craigslist and thought I'd share....Decent price IMO. http://knoxville.craigslist.org/mcy/2476910168.html |

Great looking bags but.... a friend of mine bought a new Nomad (05 I think) & he said the bags leaked from day one. Several trips back to the dealer were no help. Personally I'm not fond of side loader bags. |

My 82 CBX had, I guess "side loader" hard detachable lockable bags, I liked them better than these top loader saddlemen I got, I could strap items to the front and back and not have to dig down through them to find something

Yep that's it Mike thanks for the picture ...I'm pretty sure his name was Steve and can't remember his VRCC handle . I've not seen him on here since we went to this new board. |

I got a Red and White Valkyrie when I saw Frank's, and he had the South Carolina
stickers on his the first time I saw it... he got me the South Carolina stickers
on my side covers... So I copied Frank...
