Look again, ksquared! They can be locked to the mounts (Easy or Ghost Brackets) and their lids are lockable, as well. I am looking for the info from their mfr., which is in Hungary if I recall correctly. Here's another write-up thhat better explains their dual-locking system:

They sure aren't cheap, but the quality is there by all reports.
 
These were the best synthetic bags I could find for my money, Doug: http://www.classiccruiser.com/product.asp?item=156663
I had k_drive on my last Rocket. Problem is getting them now, since they've been replaced by CS4,which are similar but not as rigid as the Iparex k_drive. I had the CS4 on my TBird. I called Classic Cruiser today about the K_Drive on their web site and they may not be able to get the Rocket brackets. When did you buy yours and where?
 
Phil: Those look really nice - but they can't be locked (i.e. locking the lid to protect the contents). I once had a Hard Rock hat that I'd brought back as a souvenir from a trip to Malta. Someone stole it out of my saddlebags. Even since - I don't consider any bags which cannot be locked.
 
Leatherlyke bags are tough as hell, lots of room and work trouble free. The only problem is they are ugly as hell. I have had 3 sets now on various bikes, all without issue.

I researched bags to replace the cheapo Willie & Max bags that came with my R3 attached to Easy Brackets and I chose the Iparex K-drives as the best non-leather bags out there, but I never did pull the trigger on them, Doug.
