If you click on my user name and go to my page, you will see my picture album on the right. Click on that and there are three pictures of my bike on there with the bags.

They look really nice... I noticed that they are considered "small" bags on vikings's site. How often have come across a situation where you wished that the bags were a bit bigger?

The reason I'm asking is that right now Viking is offering 30% off on their bags and I noticed that the "medium" Charger bag is only $15 more... Which after the 30% off works out to around $115.00

Thoughts on Thor vs. Charger bags?

Depends on what you intend to haul in them. I have the Thor bags and they work for me. I carry my rain gear in one and my motorcycle cover in the other with a little room to spare.

Viking Thor bags are on the way... Got the for $100.00

Did you hard mount yours or leave them as throw over?

I hard mounted mine. I had to buy bolts that were 1/2" longer than the ones they supplied with the brackets and put fender washers between the chrome trim on the rear fender and the brackets so I wouldn't dent it in when I tightened it all up. Other than that, they fit perfectly. Great price by the way.

Well, They're finally here. Ordered last Friday, here on Wednesday. Not too shabby with delivery. Packaged up really nice too. Really Can't wait for spring... sorry about the low light.

Guys, I just bought a GZ250 and I'm struggling a little bit in finding a saddlebag support/rack.

Any recommendations? Does the viking ones come with the support?

Thank you!

The Viking bags come with the ridged supports and the throw over adapter.
