Anyone use the Cortech soft saddle bags on a 6th gen? How do they do with the underseat exhaust? Cortech :: Luggage :: Sport Saddlebags
There are a few around here that have them. Randy is one of the ones that comes to the top of my head but I think there were a few that were talking about getting them for christmas this year. From what I've heard around these parts they do just fine as they have some form of shielding on them. The stock exhaust also has some decent heat shielding on it that doesn't really get too hot to begin with.
CEBUVFR use them with staintune exhaust and they leave a nasty burn mark on the pipes.....................There are couple guys fab their own frame from tubing and they work good Hope this help.
They get warm, but don't burn. If you don't want your paint to scuff, you should put some clear shipping tape on it where the bags rub against it. I ended up doing the following; http://vfrworld.com/forums/gear-accessories/19273-soft-luggage-support-rack.html This helps support them and keeps them away from the muffler shields.
