My Big Dummy with 2010 Freeloader bags
I just got my big dummy and I upgraded to the new Freeloader bags because I wanted to sell my FreeRad, but the bags were pretty chewed up.
I'm thinking I'll swap out the handlebars at some point, but the bike is a great ride as is.
I love it.

Nice! Our bags are getting a little worn out, but on the plus side, I don't have to worry about water pooling in the bottom . Will have to add the new ones to the (always-increasing) list.

I was toying with the idea of buying a new speed machine next spring, but I have become completely fascinated with the BD. The Dummy seems to reflect more of a bike lifestyle than a bike hobby.
The orange bags look great.

This is the new understated logo:
The new bags look and feel just like a Timbuk2 bag:
They eliminated the mesh and added these. They are taller than the older bags:
A view from the rear:
Bag installation no longer requires removal of the racks:
They added a hole for water to run out of and apparently the pocket is waterproof:

How do you like the new bags over the old style? It looks like they did away with the small inside mesh pocket. I use that one alot for my tools and wallet.
