It's not a cheap option (esp. with the rack requirement), but i think the new Riv Slickersack looks fantastic. I've been making my own saddlebags lately as a winter project. The newest one is at the bottom of this post (click pic for bigger version). Speedblend haters should probably avoid looking, it's not a subdued bag :-) http://wjc.fidean.net/log/2009/12/08/saddlebags/ -- Bill Connell St. Paul, MN -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
