An attractive luggage solution for the Bandit! Corbin is now extremely proud to offer this set of sculpted hard saddlebags designed specifically for the lines of the 1200cc Suzuki. These bags offer all of the convenience and security of hard saddlebags with the visual benefit of being designed for a specific motorcycle's styling and chassis design. Notice the nice sculpted shaping in the bags like the "golf ball" dimples and ribbing on the side! A true touch of class for your Bandit.
Corbin's Beetle Bags are simple to install and come with everything needed for immediate installation. Our special molding process enables them to fit extremely well along the side of the bike to keep a narrower profile and excellent center of gravity. Inside, each bag has a plush liner to help protect your cargo during transit while the outside of the bag emulates the shape of the Suzuki tank. The doors seal with a heavy duty weather stripping and open forward (into the wind) so that in the event a rider should forget to close the bag, no items will be lost.
Corbin's Beetlebags mount directly to your chassis with included hardware. This is an exceptionally clean mounting system because it doesn’t require any additional out-board brackets that would create a cluttered look and push the bags out further from the bike’s centerline. Bags come painted in standard factory colors to match your bike's stock paint scheme.
Rider Comments: Hello Corbin,
I finally broke down and bought a Gunfighter seat for my '99 Bandit 1200S. I would have bought it earlier except for rumors of "too hard", "3000-mile break-in", and "restricts air intake". Well, I finally just couldn't stand the stock seat anymore. So, it was case of try a Corbin or trade bikes. I got my Corbin seat three weeks ago. Installation was a breeze and the looks are great. I expected that. The first ride was 130 miles to seacoast. I was favorably impressed, but not really convinced. Last weekend we completed a 650-mile, 2-day trip to Lac Megantic and I'm sold. The seat is the most comfortable that I've found on any bike in 30 years of riding, much less a bike with a sub-par stock seat. My only complaint is that I can't get (and never will be able to get) a Corbin for my other two bikes. They are an '84 GPz-550 and '82 XV-920. Apparently you never did make seats for these great standards.
Thank you
Larry
