You guys are too kind.I like the soft bags because I can just grab them and walk into the motel or stick in the tent.I don't like things to be too permanent..long hard decision on getting a fairing,but as I hit the road more I found that the wind in the face only goes soo far when it is raining,cold or snowing.I wore my Bagmans out and now have Nelson Riggs which are bigger for that case of beer instead of a 12 pack
I like my set up..it's how I want it.
