I'm thinking of buying them...........is mounting hardware required? If so is it included? I'm thinking of ordering them, but I don't want to go through all that and then they get here, and I come up short............not much info about them on the Triumph site. Anyone who can help I appreciate it

stay away from the Triumph Leather Panniers, really poor quality, expensive, and small. I had a set and sold them as quick as I could.

Look to the aftermarket!

What about River Road then? The bags are nice and affordable too but they want to sell you mounting hardware tghat is twice as much as the bags haahaa.......if they are needed I'd buy them and they would still be less than the Triumph Panniers...........thanks for the heads up, I didn't know they sucked

River Road look cheap to my eye. Try any of the Willie and Max bags, not their leather but their leather like bags. very nice and pretty much indestructable. Unless you get really small bags you will need some kind of saddlebag supports. newBonneville.com has some that aren't too expensive.
