Normally I'd go through Kawasaki, but their stuff is just so expensive (yes, price is a factor). I'm not looking for the best gear, just reasonably priced stuff that I'll be able to use. I also don't know how saddle bags work; do you just strap them on? Do you have to have support bars?
I have about $300 - $400 to spend on this project.
Thanks.
For $400 you can get a "Bikers Friend" bag and a Memphis Shades Classic Deuce windshield.

I know woman who (at 50 years old), with this bag, a second-hand windshield and stock seat, rode a Vulcan 500 from border to border (and back).
