Leatherlyke Bags

Hi all,
I was wondering if someone might be able to answer this question...
I have a Shadow ACE, and will eventually be upgrading to a Valk, the ACE has a set of Leatherlyke bags on it, and I'm wondering if they just might fit the stock fender rail on a Valk?
It looks like there is some commonality of parts across different Honda Models. Leatherlyke's websight shows different product numbers, but they sure seem awfully similar. Anyone tried this before?
Thanks!
Chris

I doubt if they are the same size,
the Valkyrie is a much bigger bike in length, heck overall.
You can bolt on anything, if it your bike...

Leatherlykes come in two sizes.
The Valk takes the larger
Cross Country
bags.
I don't know which ones you have now.

Having had a Shadow ACE Tourer, don't you just need someone to measure the distance between the 2 fender rail bolts, and you to measure yours, and see if the width is close enough?
If you haven't bought the Valk yet, you have 2 flavors to choose from that already have the hard bags, the Tourer and the IS.

And then there's always the do-it-youself version.

Thanks for the replys...I 've been leaning more toward the IS or Tourers, I guess I was more curious than anything.
