CORBIN Beetlebags HD-VR-BAG Saddlebags 02-06 VRODS

Very happy to have a set of these CORBIN Beetlebags HD-VR-BAG Saddlebags sitting in the garage! These 2002 - 2006 VRSCA models are extremely hard to find now a days since they were discontinued several years ago and were priced at 2K USD unpainted.
I've been looking for a used set for quite some time without any luck until finding a brand new set on eBay! I went to buy them and the seller would not ship to Canada for some reason... I was very disappointed to say the least.
Two days later a friend messages me from one of the Facebook V-ROD groups saying that he is going to be getting a set of Corbin saddlebags and was giving me first chance to buy them! It was clear he was looking for a quick flip and make a tidy profit until I said the ones on eBay and explained I tried to buy them. So now there was that awkward moment for him realizing I knew exactly what he paid for them, LOL.
So being a solid friend he offered me them for $50 over what he paid because he knew I've been looking for a while. From there it turned into a trade deal for some parts that I had that he wanted, so both of us got what we needed and both of us are extremely happy!
As much as I like the genuine Harley-Davidson hard shell saddlebags I like these even better because the Corbin Beetlbags have double the cubic inch storage capacity and fit closer to the fender with minimal gap. These are ready for paint, now I need to decide whether to put them on the silver 2005 or the 2005 blue bike.
