Anyone know where you could find a set of these bags? Do you think they could be adapted to fit a Uly?

Why, do you commute with a pair of baby grand pianos?

Wow... In addition to being profoundly ugly, they have to weigh a ton. Wouldn't be near my first choice.

Those are pickup truck tool boxes.

All that bike needs is a tonneau cover and a bed liner.

If you put anything in them other than maybe styrofoam you might need a rear drop axle with a third wheel to handle the weight.

As for fuel tanks that big.....wow....it would make a hell of a fire!

I think you guys have it all wrong. I believe those are custom spark arrestors attached to the end of the mufflers........

Read the following with a Foxworthy voice

If you took the tool boxes from your pickup truck and put them on your I-talian motorcycle...You might be a redneck!

With gas prices going up, my wife mentioned that if our Blast had hard bags she would like to ride it to work more often in the warmer weather.

I don't think I will show her this thread. She would get confused about what hard bags should be.

Hmmmmmm......Would anybody happen to have a damaged set lying about gathering dust perhaps? I am thinking hard side bags off an Ultra or R-K.

Thanks for the links. I do fiberglass repairs and painting for a living, so I was hoping to find some dumpster pieces that I can rebuild and modify while doing so. Ahhhh.....cheap..... and er....ahhh....free is what I need for this project.


Thanks again.
