I had mine custom made with two extra pouches, just like the one on the top, sewn to the sides, so that I'd end up with two extra external storage pouches per bag.

These bags would compliment your GT54's very well, as the old GT-30's were the mate for front bags matching the GT-54's prior to the new GT-18's replacing them.

If you would like a pic or two of my GT-18's, just let me know, and I'll be happy to forward same along to you.

Hmmmm... can we post pix to this sight as a file attachment?
