Craftride bags?

They are probably in the "get what ya paid for" category, the same as the inexpensive tour packs that can be had for about $60. Friends who bought one of those tell me they are as I described, just OK, and don't last long. With that said, one never knows. If you get a few years about of them then they may be worthwhile.
 
I don't if they are good quality or not. I've seen craftride engine crash bars or dresser bars for sale on eBay, might be same company, I think they were Germany also. I don't think the bars had good reviews.
 
At $300, I'd expect them to be better than just okay.

I finally broke down and got some Viking bags coming. I've had those before, so I know they're pretty solid bags, but I don't think any of them look good on the Rocket.
 
I think these Tsukayu bags look OK on a Rocket. They are not as nice looking as Corbin's, but are bigger and less than half the price. I paid extra and got the fiberglass bags instead of the polycarbonate. They are very solid.

i think they look pretty good and the price can't be beat.
if i was in the marker for hard bags, i'd definitely give 'em a hard look.
30 day return policy, you pay shipping which is only $35 coming your way.
what's not to like?
 
I think the Tasakyus look not just ok but great and with racks to boot. So how much were they?

A fine looking machine it is. I still love the three into three exhausts on the early model Rockets. I miss my 07 Classic.

Why thank you Mike ! The bags list for $449 for a set. I believe that is for the polycarbonate. I upgraded to fiberglass. The trim pieces are $300. Seems like they came in right around $800. And to @Jallen3.14 's question, yes they do lock. The locks and hinges are metal instead of plastic like Corbin's. Here is their website

I'd asked the Ebay vendor a couple of questions and they finally got back to me. I asked about mounting hardware since the bags didn't come with anything. They sent me this link to a German language listing on Ebay UK so I'm still not sure how much the hardware costs: Haltesatz für Chopper Seitenkoffer / Harte Satteltaschen | eBay

I also asked, since they claim they fit the Rocket III, if they had any photos of them on a Rocket. This was their response:
Also, please note that we do not store any additional images, pictures have a presentation purpose, therefore please rely on the suitability information provided online.

I think that tells me everything I need to know. I'll run the Vikings for a while and then get some Tsukayus like Rocket Scientist's.
