Plastic Saddlebags????
« on: August 16, 2006, 07:05:18 PM »

I don't know what planet I've been living on but I just found out my bags are plastic. I thought they were fiberglass, when did they go to plastic?

I absolutely agree with you justgary. Plastic is indeed less in weight. Much more affordable as well than fiberglass.

Can't swear to this Mark but I think the change started happening in 04.

What are you looking at to notice the plastic bags?  Thought you had de-Harley'd yourself.  One of the new models suck you back in?
