Could I get recommendations on leather saddlebags? I have an 02 standard and want a good bag that holds up well. Thank you for your suggestions.. I read this forum everyday and lots of good help on here.

If you want great looking bags at a great price look at LeatherUp.Com they have a wide selection.

I have new-in-the-box official Honda factory Valkyrie Leather Saddlebags.
These are for the Standard, have "Valkyrie" script embossed on them.
Often imitated, never duplicated.
Make me an offer.

I'm putting in a call to the League Office!   🎳

Some of the best quality leather bags I've seen/owned are Boss Bags. Pricey but good quality if you want leather. They now have many more options than when I got mine 15 years ago. I'd gone with the model 42 series less frilly bag, plain, no conchos. Still holding up well with annual care/conditioning. Decent quick removal system as well. No worries about collapsing tops or sides.

Here's a link to their site:
