Has anyone tried these liners?

Also noticed the Hopnel makes some bag liners and also a trunk liner. Anyone had an experience with the Hopnel liners?

I have TLC's liners for the 1600 and they are wonderful. And at 50 bucks, with your name embroidered for free, they are a great deal.

If you notice, Hopnel's are not custom made for the particular hardbags. TLC's are bag specific.

Ditto here too. I used them to got to Maggie Valley. They worked like a charm. NO ISSUES.

Thanks for the responses. I liked the TLC's better because of the fitment. Just wished they made a trunk liner too.

ballast and blueraven. Can you open them and use them while there in the saddle bag or do you have to take them out to open and get good axcess.

You have to remove them but it's not a big deal.

+1 on the TLC.
You can sort of just pull the top out half way to unzip and retrieve something, but as ballast says no big deal to pull them out all the way.

The TLC bags are great. The wife and I both love'em...

TLC liners are great, I just leave one of the top zippers open and I put stuff in and out of the bag without removing the liner from the hard bag, no problems.

TLC bags are made in the USA.

Interesting! I was considering picking up the Kawasaki OEM bag miners but these are like 1/2 the price. How are they quality wise? Comparable to the Kaw product?

I have the aftermarket bags and the quality is a as good as any. Id save the cash and get the cheaper bags myself.

I've been using a set of the TLC bags for over 6 years now, and they still look as good as new. They are great! If you have the top opening hard bags ('09 and later) I don't see any problem with opening them and using them while there in the saddle bag, since the access zipper to the bag liner is on top.

TLC two thumbs up!

Brent, ditto on everyone's comments about the TLC bags. I got them this summer for my 2010 Nomad. Great fit and good quality.
