I'm selling the Hondaline 18L leather saddlebags and mounting brackets that you see in my sig picture. As you can see, they are the plain version....no fringe nor studs. I purchased these with the bike in July and removed them in December to go with Easy Brackets and bags, so they were used for 5 months. They are still in very good condition with only scrapes on top from contacting them with my boots getting on the bike. As you know, the Hondaline bags are top of the line leather, not this fake stuff that weathers and wears out in a couple years.
I applied Honda's protectorant wax to the bags before putting them on, so they've always been protected from moisture. The mounting brackets are complete with all the parts necessary to attach the bags to any of the compatible bikes and backrests. All original parts will come with the brackets including spacers, bolts, nuts, etc.
The mounting brackets fit the VTX1800N, R & S models according to Honda's website.
The bags and mounting bracket sell at DLP for $530 and $165 respectively totalling just short of $700. I will sell the bags and mounting brackets for much less - now $275 -plus shipping. I will accept postal money order or Paypal for payment.
