#193767 RandyB (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 8 Silverado Bags 3 Years ago   Are the silverado bags worth the money. Any good or bad info would be great.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #193770 Frank_W (User) Riding The Filthy Sow! Platinum Boarder Posts: 3510 Re:Silverado Bags 3 Years ago   They're not bad, but they don't have the greatest capacity. Also, the openings are pretty small. I can't get a half-helmet in one. I think they come stock with dorky bicycle-looking reflectors on them, too. I replaced mine with conchos that I ordered off of eBay.   Logged     My Music Whatever...   The administrator has disabled public write access. #193775 davej (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 4201 Re:Silverado Bags 3 Years ago   Look at the new thread "bags and brackets " looks like a pretty good deal   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #193778 Greysnake (User) I'm so far behind I think I'm first. Platinum Boarder Posts: 7911 Re:Silverado Bags 3 Years ago   They came on mine and their ok for some things but like Frank said you can't put a helmet in them. I've got some mesh bags that I pack clothes in and they are fine for that. But they are a little pricey .   Logged     06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #193779 ride2escape (User) RIDE HARD BUT SAFE Expert Boarder Posts: 436 Re:Silverado Bags 3 Years ago   I have a 1999 Silverado---and it came with the saddlebags---studded as well---but I wouldn't buy them for the cost of almost $1200-- I think from the stealrship---and yes I can't even fit my helmut into them when I ride in PA or DE---so I just strap my helmut to my passenger back rest and ride on---Ronnie in MD VROOM VROOM   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #193869 fastjohnny (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1038 Re:Silverado Bags 3 Years ago   I have the stock leather Silverado bags with studs. I think they are nice but kinda small, plus if you have aftermarket pipes like I do (3" HK's) they look rather out of place - lots of air between the bottom of the bags & the pipes. It's on my list to replace them eventually, but other things are more important to me & I don't have the cash right now. If anyone wants to contribute to the Fastjohnny Bag Fund......   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #193883 backinthesaddle (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 214 Re:Silverado Bags 3 Years ago   you can't even fit chinese take out in them.

There are better buys on the aftermarket side.

Much better bags out there for just a little more. my $.02 worth   Logged     Keep the wheels turnin\' Zim   The administrator has disabled public write access. #193961 MikelJay (User) Living in the land of confusion.... Gold Boarder Posts: 874 Re:Silverado Bags 3 Years ago   Got 'em on my 06 Silverado. They do the job for me..... and thats hold my rainsuits, spare tools, flat repair kit in one side and then my half-cover, cellphone and handi-talkie in the other, plus all the other stuff too! Been on 2 long distance trips.... they do well if you know how to pack tight. Waterproof they are not! But.... I wrap everything in ziplock bags. Considering they came on the bike..... I'm not gonna complain! Just my $1.75 ( adjusted for inflation )   Logged     Last Edit: 2009/05/11 11:40 By MikelJay.
