Hey all, anyone got saddle bags? Which ones are best, how did you fit them? How much?

I just bought a solo right saddle bag for my Bobber though it's still coming from America. About $280 including postage. It is similar in design to this picture, and fits on via four leather straps that tie it to the frame (2 top and 2 bottom). It will be a tight fit, but if my measurements are right it should fit ok. If Hunter sold purpose fit ones though I would have bought it there in a heart beat.

I got a bag from a disposals store for $10 and used a PVC coated coat hanger for a frame and attached it with cable ties.. I put it waaayy to close to the exhaust but it never caught fire!!

Got the saddle bag delivered today. It fits. Obviously it won't sit at the bottom of the frame due to pipes, but it is happy to sit a bit higher and doesn't look bad, imo. Note the removable fuel bottle (a plus for those long rides with the little peanut tank)

A small one like that doesn't look too bad! Never liked the big ones on bikes. Fits right in too.

I'm not a fan of big bags either. This one is big enough to hold my wet gear, disc lock, gloves, and the like, but small enough to not be an eye sore.

Without doubt the best looking bag I've ever seen on a bike. I'd have one!

I only have the one. I was going for the solo saddle bag look. I couldn't fit one on the other side anyway as it would cover the ignition switch (which is in the dummy oil tank on the Bobber).

That looks great and I like that bottle holder as well for the hotter weather.

Silly me, I thought it was a rum holder for the cold weather.
