Some of the best value for the money. Have their tailpack. Used it for 3 years and tens of thousands of miles. It did wear out, but they warrantied it with a brand new bag replacement. I know people who have crossed the country multiple times with NR luggage.

Check NewEnough.com for prices. The standard saddle bags here cost under $60 (+ shipping) and are the same as the deluxe bags but without side pockets.

I have their tank bag. I am VERY pleased with it. This is just it's first season, but the bag is well made and will obviously last a very long time.

I have a set that are a few years old and still look new.

They have a waterproof removable bag liner that you pack and insert. Very large bags, at least compared to my others from Tour Master. The Tour Master set has rain covers that slip on.
