I'm pleased you recommend them.
I've been thinking about getting some for my Honda Shadow.
Strapping by backpack to the sissy bar every time I go out is getting
tedious.

Now does anyone have any specific recommendations, or things to watch
out for when buying saddlebags?

Very funny. When I manage to run more than a km at a time again that
aspect of my personal upholstery will take care of itself.

More information needed.

Generally I have found that if you are talking throwovers you want the
ones with the least complications.

I have a set of ventura ones that are probably 15 years old. They are
just two big bags joined by straps that are held together with velcro
for adjustment.

Lack of inner partitions makes loading them easy. THey are top
loaders, I dunno of any sideloading throwovers but someone's making
them I bet! They make it easier to pack clothing off the bike if your
packing is more than "cram it in" but painful to retrieve stuff when
the panniers are on the bike.

I don't have any bikes with high mounted pipes. The adjustable straps
mean the panniers can be hauled up fairly high but if your bike has
high pipes you have to be sure you get at least 2" clearance.

Mine are big square bags, a lot of them now are smaller "aerodynamic"
shape, you'd have to work out how much room you need.

Running may not be the solution , running is very bad for the knees so
perhaps a softer form like fast walking ?
