R27 Saddlebags

Post by Mike Malone »

Hello out there...
I'm looking for a pair of saddlebags and mounting hardware that will fit my 1965 R27. I am under the impression that Denfiel made leather bags with mounting hardware that bolted onto the small fender rack.

Does anyone know if these are still available, or if someone is reproducing them?

Thanks in advance.

I have a 30-year old catalog page that shows leather saddlebags for an R27, with brackets, but does not give the mfr. Maybe the JC Whitney Co. in Chicago offers something similar now.

Here is a picture of an R27 with Enduro bags. The bike was for sale last Fall by BMWDALE@aol.com who may know where such bags can be gotten.
