There's a new member here who's also a good friend of mine that has an M109R (in excellent condition) with a great set of Hard Case Side Bags on it. He's very interested in selling those Side Bags. I'll contact him, and see if I can get him to respond to your post. Hopefully, you two can work a deal to get you what you're looking for.
+1 perfect for me
You wouldn't happen to know the color would you?
Hello Jobbyjim,
). So after I finish that I suspect I'll have a few extras that I do not need.
Of course its totally okay and permissible for you to post items up for sale here. You were granted that right, the moment you signed up and registered as a member of the Forum. The top requirement here is honesty, trust, reliability, morals, and simply doing the right thing by all the members of this Forum...not to say you're up to no good. I just wanted to inform you on the culture/landscape of this great and amazing Forum. Also, most everyone here uses PayPal to conduct the financial side of our transactions with one another, because it provides protection for both parties, in the event there's ever a dispute, or a deal gone wrong...whether intentional or unintentional. To your point of wanting something that will provide you quick removal from the bike, in terms of having bags you can take into a hotel/motel/BNB...perhaps you may want to consider a Luggage Rack component to add to your 9. It allows you to simply strap your bags down with some sort of bungee hooks, and your off to your destination(s). There's lots of members here who have chosen that route, and I think they're all pretty happy/satisfied with it.All,
Thanks for the links and leads to the side bags. The Tsukayu bags look great, but the only thing I don't like about them is that you have to reach inside to detach them. What I'm hoping for is something that I can detach from the outside of the case without having to open it. Kind of like a suitcase for a bike. See, I'm one of the lucky people that has a partner that loves to ride on back, and we are looking to do some weekend rides to places within a couple hours from home. I'd like to be able to pull up to a hotel/motel/BnB/etc.. and just grab the bags off the bike and toss them in the room. I'm finding stuff as I look online, but just curious if anyone else out there already has something that they can recommend.
And, you answered another question ( that I did not ask ). Is it okay to put things up for sale on this forum. I'm new here and wasn't sure. The last forum I belonged to ( called Chromeheads for those who owned the classic look BMW R1200C - which was my last bike ) had a marketplace thread just for that. I've had my 9 for about 6 weeks so I am in the process of tweaking it ( new seat, backrest, saddlebags, etc - mostly for the comfort of my partner - which is very important
Again - thanks to all for input! - B
For sure Tom. I'll definitely get back to you, regardless of the outcome...just to keep you in the loop. If he doesn't want them, they're yours...if you want them. :bigthumbsup:
:bigthumbsup:
I just received some photos of the bags after they were removed from the bike. There's also a chrome Luggage Rack available, if you or anyone else may be interested in that. It's also in very, very good condition.For sure Tom. I'll definitely get back to you, regardless of the outcome...just to keep you in the loop. If he doesn't want them, they're yours...if you want them. :bigthumbsup:
I wouldn't worry about the detach levers being inside the bags. When I do holiday rides 2 weeks at a time, I take them off and put in hotel room every night and they are full. Only takes a few seconds to take off and put back on. They fit very close to the bike and follow the lines of the bike nicely. If you want another kind of quick release they will stick out quite far and with them off you'll have a big metal piece permanently mounted on the bike. The brackets that come with the Tsukayu mount to where the factory bolts are and just a piece sticks out about an inch.All,

You wouldn't have an idea of what make of bag those are would you.Hello Jobbyjim,
I was just on my cell phone with my friend who has the Hard Bags. The bags are silver to match the 06' model color, and in excellent condition. He's very new to the Forum, and unfamiliar with how to go about selling or buying on the Forum. So, I have agreed to help him with the sell of the bags. I'm currently in the process of getting the brand and model of the bags. As well, I will provide more photos of them, along with a reasonable price (hopefully today). If you agree to purchase them, I will put you in touch with him, so you two can share PayPal and Ship To Address information, to close the deal. Below is the only photo I currently have to share with you. I hope this at least gives you an idea of what the generally look like.

My 109 is gray not the silver. Thanks for checking it out for me. You really put a lot of effort into this forum and it is much appreciated.Hello Jobbyjim,

Hello Prospector,
I am in no way certain about this, but those actually look like the OEM saddle bags that suzuki used to sell for the M109. Again, I am not certain and the original owner should probably chime in. But looking at the year model of the bike and the care that they were given, that would be my guess.
Thank you BL. You were dead on with your assessment. I found them on the OneidaSuzuki.com website. You have been a huge help Bro, and I thank you very much. I'm going to post them up for sale on a new post, so they are on the proper Forum Board.
