Made this soft bag instead of buying the OEM mounts and rear saddlebag. Get's rid of the plastic cover I'm not a fan of too.

Whoa! Thanks guys! I just started with one bag on the right side as my prototype, but my pattern is reversible so I can easily make one for each side. I took the plate off to accommodate more room for when the bag is actually full but I think it would be fine with the plate still on. That is, if you use the under-seat as storage space. If not, why not just ditch the plastic?
@Mellowrider @Schu I can do $100 a bag shipped out the door and each one would take me about 4 days or less. If you're interested just PM me and we can go from there![/MENTION]
I want to be your first customer on a pair of those bags identical to the photo. Now I just have to figure out how to do the PM thing.
Stay Tuned!
I can make the bag lockable with a quick lid modification on a new bag, but mine will never lock. I figure if someone really wants what's in my bag they'll just cut it open regardless of a lock so I figured I wouldn't keep anything precious in there. It's mostly for runs to the store. That's just me, though.it looks so good, I will definitely get a pair soon....
I really like how it keeps it more vintage and old school...
how is it attached to the bike ? do we have to take the seat off ?
is there a way that it can be lockable? (with a small lock) or even a key cylinder?

Looks like it just hooks up with straps. 2 or 3 at the top and some on the sides?it looks so good, I will definitely get a pair soon....
