I installed with Easy Brackets and yes I also had to do a little filling on the bracket to get it to remove properly. (Worth the effort.) Review Details  Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

I attached them with EZ Brackets. Only wish is that they had a quick release clip instead of having to mess with the buckle. Review Details  Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

(3 stars) reviewed on 04/26/06 by Dave (DaveMcn) from Elk Point, AB, Canada, for a 2002 1100 V-Star Classic wrote: Mounted on a set of easy brackets overall bags are good lids are a bit tricky to get open & get your hand in & get stuff out. Also not quite as big as jumbo suggests, I had a set of highwayman bags before & they were bigger, bought these bags for the studded look. Would be nice if instead of buckles, bags had the plastic clips to undo. Overall the bags are sharp, seem wellbuilt, & will meet my needs. Review Details  Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

(5 stars) reviewed on 11/01/05 by Todd (Todddy) from Kelowna, BC, Canada, for a 2000 Black Cherry 1100 V-Star Classic wrote: Best bags I've had. Keep their shape well, and follow the contours of the Vstar Classic fender. Had to make my own mounting brackets from some aluminum bar stock (polished) because the mounting holes on the inside of the bag don't quite line up to the threaded holes on the fender.

(4 stars) reviewed on 07/30/05 by Sammy (SamsonJr) from Houma, LA, United States, for a 2004 Sand Beach Tan/ Rasberry Metallic 1100 V-Star Classic wrote: Very simple to install i used one existing mounting bolt hole and only had to drill three more to mount on the easy brackets. Got caught in a rain shower while on a sunday ride with the wife and some good friends. Everything in the bags stayed dry. Review Details  1 out of 1 members found this review helpful.

I was hoping for a bit more room, but it works for toting most things within reason. Seem very well made for their price range. Review Details  Was this review helpful to you? Yes No

Attleboro, MA, United States, for a 2004 1100 V-Star Classic wrote: I purchased these bags for the quality and lower price than other bags. I mounted them on my bike with biker brackets so I can remove them around town and put them on when I travel on long distance runs. Review Details  1 out of 1 members found this review helpful.

(5 stars) reviewed on 10/10/04 by DAN GRIMM (STARMANDAN) from NORWALK, OH, United States, for a 2005 1100 V-Star Classic wrote: Recieved and installed these about 4 months ago. May be the best buy thus far. These bags are well worth the money. They hold their shape, don't react to wet weather as do leather bags. I've recieved many compliments since installation.

(5 stars) reviewed on 05/14/04 by Warren (warrent) from Blue Springs, MO, United States, for a 1100 V-Star Classic wrote: Great bag for the money. After reading previous reviews I ordered the jumbo size which was just right, a large would surely have been too small. Yoke is easily removed and I was able to attach the bags to my Silverado mounts. Latches are easy to open and lockable if needed. I am very pleased with them and I'm not easy to please. This is not a case of you get what you pay for. You get more! Review Details  2 out of 2 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you? Yes No
