Jim Hinsdale,  MA Nice bags A simple, clean look with some nice features. Easy to install, and I like that the bag comes off of the yoke, but since you still have to secure the bottom of the bag probably won't use that feature. The little locks are a great idea, I wouldn't put too much confidence in them though. I like the velcro on the cover to keep the top down. I'm happy.

Steve WEST DOVER,  VT Saddlemen - Drifter Slant Saddlebags They look good but I don't love the installation. The brackets Saddleman recommend work but one bracket sticks out further than the other and when the bags are loaded, from the top it looks like the bags are pulling outward. I also don't like the shoe string attachment to the bike frame on the bottom of the bags. I am going to ditch the brackets and install the bags with Ghost or easy brackets and they should look fine and I won't need the shoestrings. Great Velcro attachment on the top of the bags and with the pressure clips they are very secure.

Steve West Dover,  VT Saddlemen - Drifter Slant Saddlebags Bags look good and fit well. Installation was very easy. They seem waterproof. My objection is they need to be attached on the bottom with shoe strings (provided) because they may bounce around underway. Doesn't look professional and it makes it more time consuming to remove them. Also, with any weight in the bags they look from above as though they are going to pull away from the bike. They are well secured and will not, just look that way. I am going to buy a different mounting system that will look better and facilitate removal (Easy Brackets or Ghost Brackets).

Mike Donnellson,  IA Saddlemen - Drifter Slant Saddlebags I really like these bags. Getting them to sit right on the bike was a bit of a challenge though.

Eric Gall Lincoln,  NE Excellent bags for a great value These bags are very rigid and hold their shape perfectly. They look great and have ample storage room. The mounting system is very versatile so they can be mounted high/low, more to the front or to the back, and everywhere in between. Removal is very quick and easy. The locking buckles are a nice touch. The buckles actually have a little plastic key that locks the quick release buckles. A screwdriver will also turn the lock, so that's a negative aspect, but if somebody fumbles around with them long enough to figure out how to get them open, they'd get into hard luggage, too. I would buy them again, any day of the week.

Travis Lush Morton,  IL the best I love these bags, I looked at some others at the local bike shop and they seemed cheap the only support that they had was cardboard material. then I found the saddleman bags. these bags have plenty of room, I’m one of those guys that packs to much stuff, even for a quick ride you never know what will happen. but these bags have plenty of space for anything I think I will need. They look fantastic if you want a very clean look, these are the bags. I will say I had some problems getting them adjusted so that they looked and fit right but that could have just been me. I would highly recommend theses bags to anyone!

Brett Ulander St Cloud,  FL Saddlemen - Drifter Slant Throw-Over Saddlebags I am very pleased with the Drifter Slant Throw-Over Saddle Bags. I purchased the largest size. They look great on my Vulcan 1500 Classic. They would look too big on a smaller bike. I debated for a while choosing the 22 inch bag, but am very glad I did. They carry a great deal more than the next smaller size that I had for 5 years that cracked a little bit from age and use. Overall, I am very please with the purchase.

Curt Catawissa,  PA Great Bags I have a 1999 Honda Shadow ACE 750CC. These bags are a great addition. Great Lines, Great Fit, Great Storage. There is so much space inside these bags for my gear. The fact that these bags can easily detach from the bike without having to undo everything is great for travel and cleaning the rear wheel. Easy install with the throw over velcro went on in minutes. The lock feature is also a great thing for security when you walk away.
