saddle bags Hawk or tt250

[elkhunter338]

The rear bracket on the Hawk and tt250 look the same.

Anyone with a good set of saddle bags that they would recommend?
Anyone with a rifle scabbard mount.

Looking at the Hawk on line and now with a tt250 in the barn, there are several components that look the same. I bet same supplier. I know the motors are different and the frame looks different. but the seat, turn signal lights, front brake mastercylinder, rear brake foot peddle assembly, tank, head light. foot pegs. all look the same.

Plenty of the parts are interchangeable like the plastics, brakes and so on. Parts like the forks, front wheel aren't. Some engine parts such as the head, cylinder and piston are interchangeable too.
Barnone posted some nice saddle bags recently in the street section. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B019F9GKEQ...iglink28144-20

I got the nelson rigg saddlebags. The are a little more expensive right now, but they go on sale frequently. They are great if you like camping.

Those are pretty cool. Looks like you can fit a crap tone of stuff in there. It is nice they come with those rain covers too.

Like Jerry said, a lot of it is the same, some of it different, most of it interchanges with maybe a minor difference here or there. A good example is the rear brake pedal you mentioned. It can be used, but does require a little work since it is not exactly the same. Two biggest differences are the arch of the pedal requires adjusting the stop out a bit and the TT250 pedal does not have the hole for the brake switch spring, but that is nothing a drill bit can't solve.

I have a TT250 rear rack on my Hawk, bolts right up.

As far as bags go, I am personally a big fan of the Dryspec line of waterproof roll top bags. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/...ag-saddle-bags

As others have mentioned, Nelson Rigg makes some good bags as well. I have been trying to decide between the previous Dryspec bags and these. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/...bags?rrec=true

A simple hoop frame to keep them tucking into the tire or exhaust is all that is needed, and could be bent up out of conduit or similar for cheap.
I also have an Oxford T50 roll top that I use on my VFR for some extra storage in place of having a top box. So far I am quite pleased with it.
