I have the Cortech sport tailbag and like it alot. I will try to send pics tomorrow after my detail session. I am pretty particular and settled on the cortech. I did not like the way the saddle bags mounted so I returned them but kept the tail bag.

I'll post up some pics of how I mount my cortech sports tomorrow. I personally like the way the saddle bags mount, very universal as they need to be to got between my F4i and the RR. Easy on and easy off, once you secure them the way you want, they do not move at high speeds (I've had them to 130 to there abouts).

Thanks allot CBR-rod......that helps abunch....i was trying to decide wether to go with red or black....i think im going with black now.....plus if i trade, the black will go with anything....

i did notice something on the rear of the saddlebags though....youve got a couple of bungees tying to the rear mudflap......i dont have anything to tie the rear to since my tag is in front of the rear tire...would the side-bags be stable without that rear strap?

Im thinking im gonna go with the tailpack only

thanks again though for the pics

If you had a heat shield around your exhaust you could drill a hole in it on each side and fasten some sort of quick release clip to use the cortech tie straps on the rear. I don't know how they would be if you didn't fasten all 4 corners. IMO that keeps them from moving front to back as well as sucked in on the bike.

As far as that goes, you could simply attach the rear saddle bag straps together, from side to side.

I debated on red, but I just wasn't sure the red bags would pop like the red on the bike. Plus as you say, black goes with anything and I got these whe I first had my yellow F4i.
