Congratulations from another "leftover" '13 owner!

LOL...that tank bag was actually sitting there while I tried out the other one. The bag sitting on the tail is cavernous when expanded and in fact I just may use it in the tail position if I can tie it down adequately. This Honda has such beautiful proportions that I just can't bring myself to mount chrome racks on it. I prefer the soft luggage for the easy on/off aspect and the fact that for me, it doesn't detract from one of the best looking bikes currently on the market.

Sure hope my Select bags fit my 2014 Std as well as they do on your 2013!

Just saw your post over on WildGuzzi, nice! I was pretty unsure about a rack but added one just a bit ago after also adding a rear rack to the Griso for the Datil Rally last year. Good place to mount a dry duffle bag. Smile

I really like the silver engine of the Deluxe, but also quite sure if I had the Deluxe I'd prefer the black motor. I'm so fickle....... Angel

So, how do you like the Tourmaster bags?

I like the contrast of the black heads. I think it breaks up all that silver. The Tourmaster's are sweet bags. Not overly large but enough for a weekend trip when you have a duffel to supplement them and a tank bag. They also have very large dense rubber pads on the inside that make contact with the bike surfaces to keep from damaging the paint/finish. What I REALLY like about them is the infinite adjustments for the over the seat straps and quick clips for instant on/off. Think I paid under $100 and they come with removable rain covers. You could do a lot worse for more money. The Tank bag is magnetic. Only dig on it is that the material covering the magnets is a little thin. Bag itself is a very practical size

Just got my brand new leftover '13 3 weeks ago, and I love it. That red is beautiful.
