MY BIG PROBLEM MAY BE YOURS, TOO!!
BUYER BEWARE!! I had purchased this product a couple of years ago and it was great! I followed the simple instructions and voila! Sync'd right up to my Samsung Galaxy S5 Sport and I was a happy camper (or rider, if you will). THEN..I upgraded to the Samsung S7...THE FOBO SYSTEM DOESN'T WORK WITH THE ANDROID 7.0 OPERATING SYSTEM!!! To their credit, FOBO customer service is very responsive. Unfortunately, just can't help. Per "Sameer" at FOBO, they "know that the system isn't working with Android 7.0 OS". They are trying to get a fix for the issue but so far, I'm screwed, with a 6500 mile trip starting in 9 days. The "fix" recommended was to activate the sensors on a different device and then sign in under my e-mail address on my phone. No luck. Bottom line is, if you are using an OS other than Android 7.0, according to FOBO, you should be okay. IF YOU HAVE ANDROID 7.0 FOR YOUR OS, KEEP AWAY UNTIL THEY CAN FIGURE OUT A SOLUTION! |

Good not great
I purchased these bags to replace a set of factory bags that I kept from my old Kawasaki VII. These bags are well made and are very heavy duty. I think they will last a LONG time! And while quite serviceable, in my opinion, they have a couple of drawbacks. Although made for the Wing, they don't truly fill the saddlebag areas. You will still have a dead area in the rear corners of the saddlebags. Obviously you can stuff whatever in those areas but I was hoping that the bags would actually fill the space better. Secondly, and rarely something I would be disappointed by, they are heavier than they need to be, in both weight and material. My old bags were more of a heavy duty nylon. They were sturdy enough but yet much easier to stuff in the saddlebags and conformed to the shape more easily. These new bags appear to be tough enough to strap on the bike without putting them in the saddlebags! These are a good quality bag but seem to be overkill. That said, I'd still recommend them but suggest other options be investigated as well. |
