Damn

Just looking online for some hard panniers for the Blackbird. Found some
awesome Corbin ones in the states. Then looked at prices. $1699 US. Ouch.
Plus shipping. Anyone here got any recommendations? Givi? I've got my own
spraypainting setup so I figure when I get them I'll colour match them to the
bike. The Corbins come colour matched.

 

Thanks for that. Looks like a much cheaper deal. But the Corbin ones are pure
porn. : )

. But the Corbin ones are pure porn. : )
Then if you have your mind made up, why are you asking?

 

Super Cheap auto!

Functional AND stylish!

 

Hopefully for someone to say: "Here are ones just like that and half the price"
or "Here is a place where you can get them 75% off" or "I've got an old set and
I've sold the bike. You can have them for $50".

That sort of thing.

Were waiting for you to announce you've bought them first.

and loaded with bricks to make wheelies easier?

N/

 

Yeah that is always the way.

It didn't need bricks; just the week's gear and it was very light at the
front. (Not to mention very very top-heavy!)
It was relegated to the shed after that GP trip.

 

The Corbin beetle bags also very sleek and wrap around the rear
bodywork. Any other after marker panniers (and even the rebadged Givi
setup that Honda sell) are tacked onto either side of the bike.. and the
bird already has a very wide tail. Makes for a very wide bike at the
arse end.
