Has anyone had any dealings with Vikingbags.com? They initially seem to have good pricing and decent products but it is almost too good when reading their web site. I am interested in putting bags on my 2000 Vulcan 750and I saw bags I like on their site under $150.00 including hardware. I will have to relocate my tail lights but I was doing that all the same. Please let me know if anyone has tried their products.

I ran a set on my 750 a couple of years and I think Old Dog has some now,I was satisfied with them,especially for the price.

Thank you. I checked them out online but they only had seven bags to choose from. The prices did look very good if I found a style I liked. I appreciate the information.

I appreciate the information. I will continue to look into their offerings and make a choice soon. I want to finish the front of my bike first and then relocate the rear lights and add the bags. Ride safe and enjoy the new season.

those viking bags look sharp, is there side brackets you have to attach? or are they like normal bags.

The bags have a rigid back with mounting holes already in them.
They are removable bags.
I had to make these simple brackets in order to mount them to my bike.
I said I would post some pics. Sorry it took so long, but here ya go.

Those are some sharp looking bags Keyman! I bought a set of the Kawasakai FS saddlebag mounts (part#K53021-094) from Ron Ayers back in Sept. 2010 hoping to put saddle bags on my bike, but never settled on which ones to go with. Seeing how my bike is a '97 and they don't make the FS parts anymore I figured snatch them up before they are all gone like I found out with the floorboards from FS. Had my hopes up that might of found the last one in a dealership in Alaska, but after talking to them they indicated it was an error in their inventory system and part sat unsold for over a year so it was disposed of by Kawasaki.
Your vikings right now are listed at $244 before shipping. Those vikings are sharp, but anyone know if I could use my FS saddlebag mounts with those viking bags?
The other option was those Mutaza GA hard saddle bags I saw a nice post about installing them, which are only $115 plus $30 for shipping.
