I would definitely buy a set of these but they will need to come in blue as well as black! Will they fit with sissy bar and luggage rack?

(Re: bikermickyc) | | Hi Yes will fit with OEM bags , they are sprayed black gloss , so could be matched to any color you like- I am sure National Cycle will offer these as a kit , we have given the info to Paul Gomez - he is one of main men at NC ,very knowledgable on all products they offer they actually make a lot of OEM triumph parts ie screens etc- so you know these US made products are top quality ! the youtube link shows how easy to fit and remove them are also inner cordura bags available -plus full 360 around the bike- Mike

went for the k21 for small trips because its light, hard, waterproof, lockable, £95 inc postage and vat, and has a handle so when i get to the night stop its a piece of cake to carry into the hotel. "easy brackets" brilliant, quick release, under £150 inc everything
am looking for a larger set though for longer tours so if you have a solution that matches above but larger than 21 litres not as curvy as those in your pic more like the givi v35 im interested.

I have been thinking of getting a T Bird, but was discouraged by the lack of hard bag options. Would want this bike for some longer touring, and for me good sized, locking, waterproof hard bags are a must. This could seal the deal for me. Do you know the capacity of these bags?
I think they look great by the way. And I think there will be a market for them. No other good options out there right now. Hardstreet makes one, but they are very small, and don't look nearly as nice as these do.

(Re: harwoodiusr | | Would these bags fit if long pipes where on the bike? They fit nice where they are on the bike with the short pipes but it looks like they would have to be rotated or sit higher on bikes with the long pipes.

Hi all that there's my TBird and so far pleased with the Panniers.
We're off on a 2 week tour from this weekend , the first long haul with these panniers. 2800 miles through Austria, Croatia, Slovakia, Slovenia, czech republic, germany, France.
Will give a report on how they handle when we return. With photos of course.
Regards
Sean
