I like the Ventura system. I don't have it, but I lust after it. | ||

If you can find a set... the Buell XB12 side bags would work. They mounted under the seat and strapped to the pass pegs. Considering we share the Firebolt tail they should fit. Maybe find some on eBay? | ||

I have some aftermarket ones that worked great in the past... They had adjustable velcro that attached above and below the tail section and held securely. | ||

Has anyone had any issues with mounting them back a little? I was thinking about using the pack rack and the rear of the seat to mount them | ||

The Ogio Saddlebags work great even with my GF on the back. I put it on under that seat and postion them a little further back. Make sure you adjust them properly though. I had them a bit too far down and they did touch the tires the first time. Adjusted them and now no problems at all. http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/4/71/27824/ ITEM/Ogio-Saddlebags.aspx I found them online for $99.99 and they matched that price when I requested it. I'll be using them again this weekend for the Indy trip. (Message edited by CraigG on August 23, 2011) | ||

Apparently you deleted your original post and lost the following info:  IMHO Chase Harper Stealth Saddle bags are excellent as I've adapted them to my Firebolt and 1125R. They hold their shape when empty, don't interfere with the passenger and are available from American Sport Bike, a board sponsor. | ||

I like the look of the Ogio's. Is install easy on the 1125, im assuming they just strap down? | ||
| Craigg |
Fio835 - Yes you thrown them over the seat or under (with passenger) 2 straps on the front to the passenger pegs, 2 stops on the back. Takes a total of maybe 5 mins to take off and on. I went with the OGIO because it had more room. | ||

Sparky it was your post on the other thread that I showed my dealer here in New Zealand. He sourced some bags that are based on the size of the Stealths here in NZ. It worked out cheaper to do than try and import...no issues with the cost or shipping from USA but its always the added taxes at this end that kill deals sometimes...thanks for your advice..most appreciated | ||

I have a set of those, and no they won't work without a lot of modification. They came with a mount that bolted to the undertail. The undertail on the 1125 is different. | ||

A friend of mine has a used set of the Chase Harpers pictured above that will go fairly cheap. They have some tire-rub on the inside bottom, shoot me a PM if interested. Zack | ||

Here are my bags packed up and ready for Indy. I have a lot of things in them. Enough for a 3 day trip for me and the GF with a spare set of extras incase of a mishap.    |
