Question:  Alot of people have been writing in here about BAGMAN
saddlebags.  I am a new owner of these bags and there is one thing that
I'm concerned about.

BAGMAN instructions say that the limit is 10 pounds per bag.  I've been
reading in here where people "overstuff" the bags.  Stuffing them is
one thing and overloading them is another (weight)

The difference between the BAGMAN bags and (say) the ECLIPSE is that
the BAGMAN bags are stiched to the supporting straps whereas ECLIPSE
has a metal backing to which the straps are attached.

Has anyone out there "ripped" their BAGMAN bags by overloading them due
to this (I'd say inferior) method of attaching the bags to the mounting
straps ?
