Here's a picture of my 1975 CB750 with a set of Nelson-Riggs soft bag.  Please ignore the ugly old fart on the bike, I don't know who he is, but it couldn't possibly be me!  This is the first time I've tried to send an attachment, so please excuse me if there's no picture.

She is much better looking than the Old Fart, isn't she?  Frances is an international student of mine from Colombia, SA.  She lived with my family for a while.  She had to return home because of a growth they discovered in her brain.  She's  had two operations so far and still needs one more.  She always wanted to ride to Daytona with me, so this year she rode "in absentia."  I sent her a series of emails with commentary and pictures  of "our" trip.  Hopefully she will be back in the U.S. some day and we can take another trip together.  Here's another picture of Frances.  I still don't know who that Old Fart is... first he steals my bike and then he steals my girl.  I wish he'd go away.

I bought these Tourmasters this week.  Fell in love with them, they're a nylon bag but have a stiffener built in so keep their shape when empty.  Also zip off easily, have rain covers & gusset stays under the seat, what do you think?

Thanks for the pics.

I was thinking about making a set of leather bags. Anybody got any pics or thoughts on that?
