For the side bags, LL Bean makes bags that work nicely and several people have used bags from Aerostich for the same purpose: http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/280414.html Not sure about the top box, but odds are you can find something that'll work at one of those sources. You may be able to find the original style bags from Hepco Becker without the Buell brand on them as well. |

Go here: http://www.bagsforbikes.com/ Karla has made several bag for Terri and me. She made bags for Terri's Hepco & Becker Juniors, my Norge, some tote bags for commuting and even a "Holster" bag for my cane. All were first class, priced very reasonably and Karla is very easy to work with. I recommend her without any reservation whatsoever. Oh; I have no connection with her; other than as a satisfied customer. |

I bought the topcase liner from American Sport Bike and their website shows it is still in stock. |

I too have the Buell topcase liner, and it's great. I honestly have not wanted side case liners, as I like packing them off the bike, and just taking the case off when I arrive. |

I find it's a lot nicer to simply bring the case inserts into my tent rather than the entire filthy, bulky hard case (especially in the rain). Tipsy |

These work best in aluminum, or otherwise square panniers like the Touratech Zegas or the Gobis, but there're a plethora of size and shape options and make for nicely organized cases. http://www.eaglecreek.com/packing_solutions/packin g_cubes/ |

I have the full set for my bags and they work really well for stuffing, then squeezing into the HB bags. X2 on not taking the dirty HB bags inside after a ride. Although, it did work until I got my hands on the liners. Just watch so that you don't pinch the straps into the case when closing them with liners. They could cause a bind and break latches. on a similar note, anyone know how to size a compression sack for a sleeping bag? I am going to have to invest in a compression sack as my sleeping bag will fit in a side bag, but it would be much easier if it had been compressed. I may have to just hit up the friendly folks at the local gander mountain for advice. Good luck. I hat to suggest it, but watch Ebay. These things pop all the time. |

Get the same size compression sack as the stuff sack that came with your sleeping bag. If it's already a snug fit, it will compress nicely from there. |

Ogio makes a waterproof duffel that could be small enough to duplicate the LLBean units if your faith in the watertight integrity of the Journeys has been dented. |
