Leather luggage for CB

[the_undecider_imp]

I received my Degner leather saddlebag with the turn signal cutout and am pretty happy with how it looks. It was a little smaller than my cardboard mock up and the from side slants at a greater angle than the CB's shock, but it gives a streamlined appearance.

I comes with two leather straps to mount to the top of the bag and has two rings on the lower back side to lash the bag to the saddlebag support. I used just one of the straps by utilizing one of the bungee pegs on the grab handle. It does block the grab handle, so I have to grab the other side or the footer bracket to hoist it on the center stand. Also, the lashing straps on the back are a few inches below the bottom of the saddlebag support bracket, so I will need to play with that to fine tune my tie down since I want to figure out a relatively easy way to remove and install the bag.

The quality of the bag is very nice. Given that it wasn't made to fit on this bike, I am happy with the fit.

Now, to get my K&H saddle with matching white stitching.
