I bought these motorcycle side bags in Italy, but they are made in France.
I used them once for a small road trip in Italy, then I brought them back and never used them after that (I do not ride anymore). They are like new.
As you can see from the photos, the two bags can be combined into what is essentially a single large carry-on bag with wheels (e.g., for air travel) and then split and used one on each side of the motorcycle (or large scooter) using very solid velcro scrap, once you reach you riding destination.
They are expandable and have internal zippered compartments and elastic straps.
Each one also has a built-in safety orange raincover.
The bags are located in Ames.

I promptly remove a listing once the sale is finalized, thus, if the ad is still visible on Craigslist, the item is still available.
