Hard Bags for 2000 VFR?

Rambamatic · 11-12-2007, 10:24 PM

Hey there.

I currently run the Nelson Rigg Silver series saddle bags and tail bag system, and although it's nice because I can take it on and off easily and it's got a ton of space, I'm going to be going on some longer rides, and am looking to upgrade to a set of hard bags.

I don't like the beetle bags....very little functional space in them.

I saw some on line that were black and round from GiVi, and although they look nice, they don't really seem to "fit" the look of the bike....they're awkward looking.

Does anyone have any advice on hard bags that "fit" the look of the VFR, and are functional with lots of space and not too much of a pain in the ass to get on and off?

Or what about a resource for finding them?

Thanks
