It took my a while to find this thread again but I wanted to say "thanks" Don for bringing this bag to the forum. I have had this bag installed on my new 650 (along with Oxford saddle bags) for about a month now and it is really teriffic! It is well made and the back rests work very well. I did find it somewhat difficult to install on the OEM luggage rack but finally found a way to secure it well. The only concern I have had with it is that my visibility from the back is not very good with the black bag on the blue bike. It actually covers a lot of the bright red on my jacket, so I am now looking for a way to improve that.
This forum is such a wonderful resource for ideas and information and I forget to say "thanks" once in a while to all the members.
