Bikers Friend Saddlebag 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago
|
|
Anyone have one of these? I will be riding from CA to DC next May and think something like this would be great for storage and back support. Any opinions?

I know some people with it. If you are riding one up its a great thing. Even better if you dont have a drivers back rest.

I will be riding one up. And I don't have a backrest other than the passenger seat for my mustang. Thanks

pricing seems on par with offering from other co's such as Kuryakyn and T-Bags. No experience with them. I've never had problems with t-bags and I know people who like the kury bags. My guess is its all good.

Get the one with the blue shirt....she looks comfortable
I probably can't afford the model with all those nice features. Also my wife wouldn't like for me to be spending money on something that nice.

I have the large Biker Friends bag and love it. I bought it when I had a Honda VTX 1300 that didn't have a back rest and this worked great. I still have it and use it on my Roadstar at times for extra luggage. I wasn't crazy about the bungee straps that came with it. If you slip when pulling them tight you will have a scratche fender. I bought some flat nylon adjustable straps and cut to fit so they would not flap in the wind.

Listen if your going to buy a bag for traveling, buy a big bag. This is what I have and I love it.

Keep in mind I can get on the bike and go some place for a week. I also have my saddle bags for carrying my rain gear and tools.
But I can pack for a fairly long time with this puppy and its not even the really big one!
Now matter how much space you think you need, your not going to have enough.
