Well folks I decided that my Triumph bags just won’t be big enough for a weekend trip so I went out and bought these SQP Bags. I can fit both my Triumph bags into one of these bags. They can clip off and this is another bonus and they are made of heavy leather. Price well thy cost 1,100 South African Rand = 184.035 US Dollar

They are however going to need a bit of modification to sit tight onto the bike. I will need to take them to a leather worker to fit two straps on the backside of the bags so I am able to strap then tight against the Triumph brackets. Not a big issue though.

Wow! I like those a lot better, I think they will be more useful, and also that they fit the look of the bike a lot better, good looking combo!

Enjoy your trip!

Very nice bags Speedwasher! Is there a website for these?
Have you considered the Easy Brackets?

They don’t need the easy brackets as the just clip off at the top just below the seat. I just need to have the additional straps put on top so they clamp over the brackets on the back of the bags to make them a bit more rigid

I like those bags Speedwasher. Very nice look. Can you post something showing how they look with the whole bike in the pic?

Yes I can but I have them off right now having the extra straps fitted on the back of them to be able to strap them tighter onto the brackets. I hope to have them fitted again by the weekend. I will also be placing the photos on triumphtalk.com if I forget to do it here.
