I just bought a set, via E-bay of the Triumph soft, fabric bags for my TBA. I will use them very infrequently.
Any suggestions as to preferred attachment scenarios?

Thanks.

Golfer, maybe it was the Ginsburg quote that frightened everyone? :-D

Let me know how they work out. Now that I'm no longer in the city, I'm thinking of putting bags on.

Silverado- Good point!

I'll come up with something different tomorrow.
Maybe something from Emily Dickenson or Martha Stewert.

:wink:

regardless of how often you use your bags, go with the easy bracket setup for ease of removal, and locking features. i had these with a set of saddlemen bags on my 02 Shadow Sabre - really liked them. i plan on doin gsomething similar with my 06 Speedy - alot less wear and scratching to your fender
good luck. and do something with the quote - it kinda wierded mem out too!!!

TNT, if you go with the Easy Brackets, give us a full review. There have been some reports of fitment issues on the right side brakcets (correctable). If you have problems give me a PM.

Golfer, I was thinking more along the lines of Will Rogers or Groucho Marx. :-D
