Here are the Outdoorsman bags called Juniors from Hepco & Becker. Instead of 42 liters up top I bought the 40. Instead of the 30's from Buell I got the 40's. Very sturdy, roomy, and I'm sure accommodating. Enjoy. BEFORE: |

Eurotech sports. I recently bought the house...... the rugs came with it. They keep the Spyder and the Uly warm |

that looks sharp that way, makes me wish I didn't have 2 sets of journey bags. i might have to consider changing my mind before i ever put the journey's on. |

Fordrox - just get outdoorsman racks and the turn signal relocation kit. Your journey bags will go right on, only differences (advantages?) will be they sit farther back on the bike and mount latches-back instead of latches-front. And...if you decide down the road, you're ready to go as far as mounting. Top case racks are the same set to set. |

Tankhead, did you get the mounting system from Eurotech or from Buell? |

Racks from Buell. No hardware comes with racks. Ordered one of each from Buell and then matched the correct amounts from Ace hardware. |

Tankhead: I didn't know you could buy just the racks. Can you provide the part numbers you ordered from Buell? I already have a Givi topbox using the Twisted Throttle/Fehling rack. I am interested in mounting the junior bags. Thanks, Mark |

you don't have to change anything to mount the 40's right? |

So long as you have the outdoorsman racks you don't have to channge a thing. Won't work with Journey racks or bags for that matter. |

Journey bags OR outdoorsman bags will work on outdoorsman racks (with the turn signal relocation kit). ONLY journey bags will work on journey racks. Outdoorsman bags will technically latch to the racks..but they hit bike parts. Hard. Do a search, there are a ton of threads. Outdoorsman bags - whether 30l or 40l - use the same base structure/mounting "shoe", and the same rack. They just extend further. |
