Easy on -n- easy off hard shell bags?
I'm thinking about some easy on -n- easy off hard shell bags. Anyone had any experience with a good set? Pics?

Givi makes some sweet luggage -- but Corbin.com has some awesome hardbags for 14's. BEWARE - These are FAR from cheap!!

I have the Givi V35 sidebags. Sorry, no pictures on them on my bike. The quality and looks of the bags are excellent.
It takes about 20 minutes to bolt on or remove the mounting frame to the bike with hex wrenches, a crescent wrench and screwdriver. The bags attach/dettach to the frame in seconds without any tools (just the key that also locks the bags).
The bags are attached very firmly; when riding you won't even know they are on the bike. Just don't forget that with the bags on, the width of the bike has been increased considerably (not good for lane splitters). If you use bags a fair bit, they are definitely worth the money.

I got the Fieldsheer expander soft bags and they are big with tons of storage. Got them on sale for under $80 bucks. I only take a few trips a year and they work great for me.
