After four years of use, my Triumph teardrop saddlebags on my T100 are torn, worn and ready for replacement. Have shopped around and looked at all the options available, including the "Saddlebags with Pics" thread on another forum.
Problem is, am dragging my feet on picking a replacement because I just think a Bonnie looks better totally naked and without bags................
I agree these bikes look best without bags. I decided to skip the saddlebags and go with a very small tank bag and a tail bag. So far that works for me. I've only taken one two day trip, but the tank/tail gave me enough room for that short trip. I had not expanded the tail bag, and if I'd done that I could have probably brought enough gear for a 3-4 day trip......'cept I'd have to leave the netbook at home. <g>
My tank/tail bags are made by Cortech.
