    Nice bag but the attachments were a little loose. Added some zip ties to it and it worked out perfectly

    It just arrived today I was able to find a spot on where to install it. Seems sturdy, and looks neat on my bike. I like the size and the leather straps. Hope it last long

    This is a great looking leather bag. The stitching is sturdy and the bag is solid. It has clip fasteners under the Buckles which makes accessing the bag very convenient. I definitely recommend this product.

    My third swing arm bag. This bag has amazing quality love the additional plastic liner against the actual swing arm; much better that leather against the metal of the bike.

    This is a well built and great quality bag. My problem is it is so small that I could not even put my cordless drill in it. I even removed the battery and it would not fit. It is very well made, I just thought the dimensions which are accurate would allow it to carry more, if your just looking to carry gloves and a set of glasses it is perfect if you want to carry anything, like a cordless drill just wont happen. I found myself calling it a bike purse and now I removed it and went back to bungee cords and strapping things to the sissy bar. But again I must say, high quality and easy to install, just not going to use as a saddle bag. My mistake not the manufacturers.

    Smallish but thats what I was after, replaced tool bag on forks. Stays where you put it. Very handy and good looks too on my Breakout, wife bought one for her Softail. Quick connect on open/close straps is nice.

    I have a 2010 Softail Fat Boy and I needed something to carry a few items for my commute. This bag fits great on the bike and looks like it belongs there. The cost was very reasonable and it actually holds more than you would expect. I am able to pack my lunch with several cans of soda and close it securely. On weekends, my girlfriend can stash her small purse with our wallets and such in the bag when we ride together. The build of the bag is very good and I highly recommend it for someone that needs a little bit of room to carry items for a very reasonable cost.

    Took a round file and cleaned strap slits in the plastic back wall. I was afraid that rough edges will cut through the straps. Also mounted straps from inside the bag. It eats some available space up, but looks safer. Fits 2021 HD Softail Slim, but I didnt ride with it yet. Update 5/25/2022 Took a few rides and the bag is still there!

    At a glance this is a good looking bag but it’s all down hill from there. Back side of the bag is a piece of hard plastic. Good for keeping the bag sturdy but not good for your paint. Not sure why they didn’t just put a plastic insert in the lining. The sides and bottom of the bag are sewn to the plastic backing and they don’t line up very well, it looks very shoddy. I do like the quick release buckles hidden behind the traditional metal buckles. Bag is smaller than I expected but it does fit well with the swing arm of my bike (2022 Harley Heritage Classic). The bag comes with 3 faux leather mounting straps that are stupid long. Aside from being way ridiculously long, the straps have metal buckles and the pin holes don’t go far enough down to get a tight fit on the swing arm. Straps and buckles take up a lot of space in this small bag. For the price, this bag should be made of leather, not have a slab of plastic for a back, and have some better craftsmanship. I do not recommend it. Only reason I gave it more than one star is because, in spite of everything, the bag does look pretty cool on my bike.

    The pleather is strong, the pseudo grain looks realistic, the color contrasts a flat black bike quite well, the buckles are sturdy and the cinching straps are strong. Overall the construction quality is good though they could have really improved on the visuals by taking a more creative note with the stitching. Perhaps provide a larger thread size and offer different color stitching to match seat stitching. Ive installed it on the swingarm opposite side from the exhaust on a 2008 C50T. I run with a luggage rack on the rear fender instead of the passenger seat and sissy bar so taking off the rear passenger pegs to accommodate the install was no big issue BUT was required in order to ensure the best positioning for the bag. Overall this bag looks nice and fits relatively well but sheesh man, the thing is very expensive and doesnt hold much of anything. I basically throw in my tool kit and a reg document holder and theres just not much room beyond that. Did I mention this thing looks good? Yeah, it does look good but take it from me, a rider with a completely reattached quad and having every ligament replaced and carrying a dizzy amount of hardware in my leg... the quick release buckles being so low to the ground make this a very bad purchase for me. Due to an inability to kneel on the bad knee, I find it near impossible to use the bag regularly. Just too hard to kick my leg out straight (lack of a high angle bend) and balance on the other leg while trying to open the bag. So, if you buy it for the looks AND you dont intend to use the storage space regularly, this bag will be a great purchase. If you intend to use it to carry much more than a couple of items and get to those items regularly, I recommend you buy this only if you are still in your 30s or younger and havent accumulated so many knee issues that the height of the quick release buckles becomes a liability. The unexpected disappointment was its inability to hold my optimus green bottle (34 oz) without either leaning it or having the top push up on the bag flap. Prior to purchase I did compare the bag stated dimensions with what I measured my bottle to be but didnt account for the slope of the bag bottom so even though the edge of the bag is high enough to fit, the cap isnt at the edge (go figure) its almost 2 inches from the edge where the slope reduces the height significantly. If I hadnt already superglued in some hook and loop straps on the inside of the bag to hold the bottle in place up against the long edge of the compartment, Id have likely sent it back and chosen a different bag. Maybe one with the bottle sleeve on the outside. Overall Ive improved the look of my bike with this bag though I didnt really think the low height of the bag would affect me as much as it has. So, in summary, if you have any sort of mobility issue that keeps you from being able to comfortably operate the quick release buckles you will not have a good time using this bag for every day carry items. If you intend on using a fuel bottle, make sure you subtract about 1.5 inches or so from the height of this bag before comparing to your fuel bottle to ensure your bottle can fit without pushing up the enclosure flap. To be fair, this is really not a huge issue in the case of my bottle in that, the push up on the enclosure flap though noticeable is not a deal breaker.
