I didn't know if pic would post or not so i just tried and it went up. The bags were a very faded black with chrome trim which was peeling off. sanded down the bags and a buddy painted them for a 100 bucks. Anothere friend powder coated the trim for 50. the bags were free. so for 150 bucks i now have a nice set of shoie bags.

Nice. So, where ya going?

WOW!!!!

Looks great!!! do you have the model # off the bags? are the bags removable? i would like to add a set to my bike for rides to the keys. and a bud owes me a paint job...

sorry I don't have model number. The guy i bought the bike from a few years ago found the bags in his barn and called to ask if i wanted them. He just said they would be free but in rough shape. i didn't see any numbers or anything on them when i took them apart.

They are bolted on and i have the signal lights wired into them. So yes they come off but it would require some work and putting old signal lights back on. I'm just going to leave them on as i think they finish off the look of the bike with the front ferring on. Also good for running errands for the wife.

I don't ever carry a rider and with the bags i dont think i could.

ps Sven: You have a nice looking bike also.I will try and find a pic of back of bike.

Nice job on matching all the paint.
I also have a set of Shoei bags I'll keep just in case.
Been meaning to paint them to match too.
