I looked at the OE style saddlebags, (like these ) but I don't like the price tag.


You'll have to excuse the crude drawing of my bike, Of course not to scale
This is what I've been thinking. Removable, (by bolts) in case I have someone with me, and then the backrest transfers to the passenger. 2 seperate compartments maybe?
I like your design ideas, I'm looking for something similar in the long run.

Why not go for regular panniers and a topcase? Those can be removed and placed in mere seconds for trips around town and have more than enough room for long trips.
