Saddlebags are like shoes, you have to try them on to make sure they fit. The retail out lets in my area are slim to none and time was critical so I bought a fairly cheep and small set, Eclipse p-38s. I have removed the rear seat cowling/bodywork which aloud the bags to be mounted much closer to the bike. Also I went under the seat with the straps it is a very nice and clean fit, the bike is only about 1 ½-2 inch wider on each side. They are 15 liters each. I have an old joe rocket tank bag that the top larger half separates and can be used as a back pack. I strapped the top half to the back of the seat as a tail pack and am able to pack seven days clothes, shoes and some leather pants. I would post some pics but have recently buggered the software for my camera and haven’t located the cd yet. The hard bags will have to be a future project.

I leave in 2hrs, Thanks for all the input.
