Hi'ya mates,
Jimmy from Hamilton Ontario Canada here!  Believe it or not, the best price I can find for new sixth generation VFR hard saddlebags is from DavidSilverSpares.  At 175 pounds, my price is less than 350 Canadian dollars.  The problem for me is the cost of shipping these big cases to my humble abode.  Do those of you with people over here know of any way I can save some money on shipping?
Cheers,
Jimmy

They can't be that big, or heavy [when empty]... normal post would handle them no bother, but be sure to pay for a tracked service.

The thing is I asked DSS the price for the cheapest shipping method.  They told me 108 BPS!  That is around 200 Canuk Bucks!  $350 in parts, $200 in shipping is tough to swallow.

Note:  Sadly though, that price is still cheaper than any other quoted to me from any North American merchants.

The price probably has more to do with the volume than the weight  Sad
