Samsonite Bags
I have a 1980 GS850GL that has a Samsonite hard side luggage set. Side bags and rear trunk bag with matching locking racks. Was this a dealer installed item or after market ? Thanks.Tags: None

I'm pretty sure that this was aftermarket. Samsonite made hard bags for many popular bikes around then.sigpic[Tom]

Thanks for the info. Took them off then realised that left no grab bar. Put them back on to move the bike around till I get it running. Maybe have to find a home for them.

No pics yet. Just dug the bike out of storage. Bought it 5 years ago then moved. Just getting ready to get her on the road. Ordered the carb to head rubber boots,can't wait to start riding again.
