Don't know about USA, but the fabric panniers are readily available in the UK. The chrome rails come with them

Do they have to be Triumph bags?

If not, measure the available space and start going through the catalogs for dimensions. I found a set of Chase-Harper saddlebags that way, and the Adventurer seems particularly hard to fit because of the space limitations.

A guy I used to ride with had saddlebags but didn't have the support bars. He just used a bungi cord from the rear pegs to the tail light and back with no problems.

Order them from PJ's. (It is a sponser. I ordered the leather ones and they came with the brackets. The fabric will too, because I was looking at both. By the way the price was way better than my dealer, and I got them faster thamn by dealer could have.
Oh yeah, the reason I chose leather is that the fabric will sunbleach and deform in just a couple years. For the price, I just could not bring myself to ordering them. Also I got a seat and the bags for about what my dealer whanted me to pay for the seat. :kck:

I use just regular saddle bags. (for horse use)
I paid $75.00 for the natural leather ones. I don't have the saddle bag brackets, and they don't hit the wheel.

You can see photos in my photo album of them and how they are attached under the seat.

The size is great for everyday use.

Cal Triumph/BMW in Mt. View, CA has them. Also most bought them for my legend, but they order the wrong brackets for my bike. (There #: 650-966-1183)

I have a set that I have decided not to use. I was about to put them on our favorite online garage sale when I read this post. PM me if you're interested.
