I want to buy a couple of soft saddlebags for my curvy.
Seen these...

Any opinions?

What have you got. If you found yours really great let me know.
I want something that's safe and doesn't get that soggy real easy.

I use Oxford sports panniers and would highly recommend them! I road 120 int torrential rain and they didn't leak!! If you do decide to get soft panniers pack everything in bin liners then put them in the panniers just in case. the only trouble I had with mine was the rain covers filled with water and sagged onto my exhaust melting one of them. The Oxford ones also expand and you can get quite a bit in them!!

I'll second the Oxford ones - though I think mine are the Humpback range - cheaper than Givi too I think.

Any links from where I could buy them off the net? No supplier locally.
And they do fit ok on a curvy right? The missus rides pillion, will they be in her way?
