Default Do you have pictures of soft saddle bags on your bike?

Just bought a new 07 DL650. Considering soft luggage vs. hard luggage. The GIVI Soft Luggage T421 looks apealing but would like to see what others are using.

Recommendation for side racks to hold luggage integrity would be appreciated too .

Thanks

Here you go.

Bags were from RL Motorcycles (great group of guys to work with, and great prices!!)

Givi Voyager T418 and T421 bags:







For the non-muffler side, I purchased this item from Dan Vesel:




Got mine in black. He provides silver and black, depending on what you want.

Dan's site is here (luggage guard is on the second page):

Hope this is helpful to you!

Hey nodaclu,

I got an offer for a pair of used T421 for about 100 bucks.
Before I go for it I'd like to be informed, and thanks to Heavy's recommendation regarding the use of search function ( ) I found your post.

My questions:
  • how is the fit, installation on the bike?
  • does it withstand against the heat of the muffler?
  • how problematic the use of passenger-pegs when 2 up?
  • how is the stability at higher speeds (~80-100 mph)?
  • what is your thoughts on usage (space, zips, material, rainproof, access), worth the money?
Thanks in advance!
