These bags were just awkward. Didn't really fit onto my luggage rack very well. I've tried every configuration of bungees and straps I could think of and it still didn't tighten down like I wanted it to and it would have been a pain in the tookus to get off to take in somewhere. I ended up with a leather messenger bag from the big named dealer where we bought the bike and it was perfect. Rediculously expensive, but perfect.
