Review on πŸ”’ Enhanced Durability: Milwaukee Performance SH574ZB Black Large Zip-Off PVC Throw Over Riveted Saddle Bag for Long-lasting Convenience by Chris Moody

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Reliable autofocus, suitable for C50

I haven't had it for a long time. They were only on my Boulevard C50 for about a month before I was passed by a 30 mile truck. The pockets are huge which is exactly what I wanted. My entire tool kit, three bottles of water, balaclava, first aid kit and slings all fit in one bag. High quality material and plenty of pockets and places for your belongings. I like the wide brackets - it would be very easy to attach a luggage net to carry camping gear etc. Comfortable for the passenger, even considering the size. I would recommend support to keep them in place. I used clips/zip ties/zip ties to attach it to my mounting hardware and it was very easy. My bike was wrecked and my bags were thrown off the bumper when a truck hit me. It looks like the weak point was the yolk as that's where it came loose, but the zipper held up well. Surprisingly, only two items inside were broken by the impact. One of these was a 10-inch hunting knife that was in a pocket reserved for firearms. It was broken at the handle. So if this gives you an idea of the durability of the bag. Even after going through everything, the pockets stayed locked. The pockets on the outside couldn't withstand the violence, so these things scattered. During the ride they held up perfectly! I didn't get a chance to test them in the rain, but felt they were pretty well made for rough weather. You look super stylish! Photos before and after the crash for durability comparison.

Pros
  • handy item
Cons
  • so far so good
