Like all throw over saddlebags,
"Like all throw over saddlebags, these have some shortcomings. However, I like the fact that the lids cover the bag, instead of being just "on top". The Velcro does add an extra seal but it is not really necessary and makes opening a lids a bit more challenging. I also like the extra loops to secure the bags to the frame. It would be great if the tabs, which join the two bags, were a bit longer with more holes. All in all, I am happy with the bags and I would buy them again."
