I have a 98 Royal Star that I have almost completely turned

into a tour deluxe. The last thing on my list are saddle bags, as I have

all of the brackets and exhaust installed. The problem I am having

is finding factory bags without spending a fortune! Is there

somewhere besides eBay that I can source them?

 

Also, I use to have a road king classic and I really kind of

Liked those bags. Believe it or not, I can buy a pair of

those for half the Yamaha factory bags. Has anyone

done this, and if so is there a write up and pictures?

Are you talking about the old style facoty leather bags or the current style hard bags?

 

I have owned HD baggers prior to owning my RSTD. I really like the HD hard bags better for packing stuff. They seem to allow better stuffing and they and deeper but a little more narrow. If you can find a way to mount them and like the way they look I would say go with the HD bags. Obviously this is a matter of personal preference.

 

BTW if you can get yourself a set of the old style factory leather bags and want to trade them for some flawless hard bags off a 2009 RSTD in red let me know. I always liked to look of the factory leather bags.

There is 3/4 of a set of hard bags on the classifed section of this site under Royal Star listing, seems he is missing one lid, but that could be a start, maybe.

 

Also there is a set of the leather slant bags like came on the 98 to 01 Tour Classics on the same section of the classifieds.

 

Maybe not what you are looking for??
