Nothing like beautiful scenery to get
my mind off of busted saddle bags.
The trip back home was quite uneventful. 120 miles later I was
back in Arcadia. I took the broken bag in and examined it a
little closer.
Suffice to say, $60+ later, the bag was repaired. Knowing how
flimsy the bag was, I went ahead and order an extra top mounting
bracket in the event one of the two bags broke off again.
Bottom line, go Touratech or something more sturdy if you plan on going
off road. BMW's bags just don't cut it.
