Does anyone know if saddle bags off a California touring will bolt on to the Eldorado?

That is a beautiful CalDorado.They can be attachd but it requires making or finding some small spacers to put between the bags and the frame of the bike. you could probably stack a bunch of washers but it would be easier to remove/reattach the bags later if you made some spacers out of bar stock. My setup was done for me by my dealer (Moto International in Seattle -RIP) but it doesn't look like it would be all that difficult to do yourself. View attachment 21301 View attachment 21300
If you check out the posts by Meldrew, he has the Cbow mounts and Buffalo bags on his Eldorado.Thanks for taking the time to post those great pictures.Just want to be sure the tall windscreen you have on now is the OEM Extra wide one that they say is 27.5" tall X 23.5" wide.My dealer in Reno who I purchased the bike from gives me 10% off all parts but even at that it is around 850.00 for that screen with hardware so I want to try and get it right the first time.Plus I am looking at the Hepco Becker C bow mounts and Buffalo bags.I like the idea that I can remove them when I want to.Have you had any feedback from owners on how these fit and hold up?Last I see your riding on a Corbin saddle.I have had a few of those on Goldwings over the years as we would do a ride down to Hollister to get a seat made at the west coast factory.My last Goldwing I had a Daylong saddle made and really liked it.I am sure a new seat will be in my future and wanted to know if that Corbin your riding on is wider then the stock seat as my large rear end could use a little more square footage-LOL.Thanks for your time with all my questions.This shopping for Guzzi stuff is a whole new experience to say the least.
Glad it helped (Todd is a H&B dealer so you could touch base with him regarding bags etc).Thanks Robert I found Mildrew's posts with pictures of the 35L buffalo bags.Those pics sealed the deal to order that setup.Now just need to figure out what size windscreen and I will be ready to order.
