This is what I got http://www.twistedthrottle.com/trade/productview/7054/ 66L total capacity, daisy chains to link bags together and to attach to bike, comes with plenty of straps, the bottom bag has an insert so it holds shape even when empty, top bag is accessible from either end when on bike, bottom bag is accessible even when cinched to the bike too. Also comes with a multi purpose compression strap, handle, shoulder strap. Can link it lengthways or widthways across a seat or on top of existing side cases or topboxes.

I don't have many mounting points like you see on the bike they're using but damn that looks impressive.

Its extremely well made. Hopefully it will be the last set of bags I'll buy for the bike unless I get another complete set so I can mount two sets over the panniers, although that might be overkill. Yes, you need 4 anchor points but you'd be surprised what you can use, look at perhaps threading straps under your seat as a last resort. Or if you have an industrial stapler you could staple some canvas loops onto the underside of the seat tray that can then be used as anchor points. My tiger actuually came with loops like this attached to the seat by the factory.

Thanks for the suggestion and providing the links but I don't think I could trust it since there's no way to attach the straps to the bag, you just have to cinch it down.

Another thumbs up for the ROK straps. They're so much better than dollar store bungee cords. Once they're cinched tight, your load isn't going anywhere. www.rokstraps.com Also available at Snow City.
