What do you guys think of these bags

We just made a new style of extended saddlebags just asking people what there think of them. We put them on a buddys bagger.

Our buddy Picos garage built this fine bike with our new saddle bags

I like them. They look great. I like the lines that follow the line on the side cover. Good job. I hope they don't cost a thousand dollars when you start selling them.

Those bags are sick!!! But I'm sure as anything that looks sweet they will end up costing way to much. other than that, they are great looking bags.

Do they drag before the floorboards? Would suck to get those then drag the corner out of them.

They look a bit like the ones that Sinister has but based on your described vacuum forming I know there is a difference there. The maker of the bags Sinister sells hand lays the glass in three layers. Nice bags regardless.

BTW, you might have wanted to keep this confined to a single thread.

bags are vaccum infused, The nice thing is you get alot of fiberglass and not very much resin making them lighter and strong. The body line lines up with the side panel body line. i design the top of the lid to flow with the line on the bag. We do all body work and put them in PPG primer before i let them leave. Price is 749.00 shipped to you door.But if we can get some guys to be interesed in these. We can do some Group buys say like 5 people. . Shops we sold them to said they where the staitest out there. we made a Youtube video of a buddy standing on them.

Price 749.00 shipped with insurance but if we can get enough guys interesed the price can drop

We can cut the bags so that they can have a 2"-2.5"-3"-3.5" stretch for the more aggresive riders out there.

What size would you reccomend so that the bags line up with the bottom of the stock Street Glide rear fender? I always thought it was 2", but starting to think it may be more like 3". Also assume you'll do a 2-1 pipe cutout specifically for a particular pipe, in my case D&D Fatcat?
