hello-
has anyone tried the JC Whitney pony exress saddlebags?

I looked in the archives, but couldn't find anything.
If you did, which size did you get? I was thinking of trying to mount them
under the seat for security, and trying to figure out which size would be
work.
They are cheap, but made from 1000-denier cordura & they come in black.

There is no way to secure soft bags, short of taking them with you. I've
found my (empty) soft chase-harpers opened and rummaged through several
times I've left the bike unattended in a parking lot with them on.
They would serve as a good starting point for a set of cheap soft bags.
You'll most likely need to modify the yoke, as I don't think 10" will be
enough for them to sit properly on the bike. Plus I'd look to see if
anybody makes dry bags that'll fit inside these, I've had garbage bags
leak on me too many times. You could easily make a stiffener out of
plastic sheeting or plastic snow fence (plenty of that around here to
"use").
