SaddleBags For a Stock XJ700

Anyone know of some highway slant style SaddleBags that are small enough for the XJ700?? The top of the muffler is about.. 10" down. So somethin like, 10"H x 11L" x 5W"

I would like to know where i could find some too

 

You might try asking at www.maxim-x.com since they are dedicated to those bikes ...

 

Found ones that'll maybe fit. They look ok, but not the "Biker" look I'm looking for.. Maybe it'll help someone else out

Tourmaster makes some leather slant style bags that might be the right size you need. You could also check out companies like Willie and Max and Saddlemen as well. There were a few I saw on the Saddlemen web site I liked even though they wouldn't fit my bike.

 

I found a set of willie and max compact slanted #SB707S bags on craigs list. put them on look ok but i have to relocate the turn signal lights to keep them off the rear pegs

 

heres some pic of them on the bike. had to move them back that far to get around the ignition module under the seat

 

Found a nice set on Willie and Max. But they're plastic reinforced. Nut good so close to the exhuast, but essentially what I'm looking for

Found another thats PERFECT, but i think 16" long wouldnt work.. Have to slide under my signals.
Man this is tough.

Black Magic slanted bags at
12"W 9 1/2"H and 5 1/2"D

Just two inches too long. But awesome looking bag

 

Actually.. now that I think about it, if it overlaps the front seat a little thtas ok, as long as there is leg room for gf. And there is actually.. Hmmm, maybe it'll work.
Those Black Magic ones may just be perfect for the XJ700

Here's a Park Avenue Set that'll fit too. This is slick

Those are some nice looking bags. I bought the ones I have off craigs list for $35.00 including the bag holders.

 

Hmm I thought I had pics of mine I will try to get some up for you. I bought some from a harley shop(not a dealer aftermarket shop) they were on sale I just removed the passenger seat flopped them on lined them up I had to cut slots for the seat bracket and backrest bolts. then put the seats back on. I also had some 45's put on the pipes as I was worried about heat on the leather. Mine are not slants but you could do the same with throw overs.

 

Yeah I'd like that a lot!! The Black Magic Willie and Max ones are the ones I'm </i>Currently<i/> decided on. But ALWAYS open to suggestion. They're running $130 currently... Bit pricey.. cant for a couple months.. but hey. Can dream right?

 

According to my wife, no... Dreaming isn't allowed.. because it leads to things ;-P
