I was pretty happy with the setup when I bought the saddlebag stay for Himalayan from Donowyn. We were headed out for a 10-day trip in South India. I had promised to write a full review once I was back, covering the performance, pros and cons. Now is the time for that. But wait! If you have not read part 1 in this series, where I cover the purchase, installation, size comparisons, etc., head over to the Royal Enfield Himalayan Saddle Bag Stay story and read that first.

Royal Enfield Himalayan Saddle Bag Stay
Most of our one-day or weekend rides require little regarding luggage space. But, for an upcoming trip, it became evident that I would need a Himalayan saddle bag stay to figure out a way to load saddlebags onto the bike without fouling with either the silencer or the rear wheel.
