I don't care. As gorgeous as that scoot is, only, ONLY leather will do it justice. Just make them easy remove.
If you do otherwise, consider yourself an aesthetic criminal and expect to be shunned and have tomatoes, rotten, thrown at you.

The Givi's snap on and off in seconds.
... but I always carry "stuff" with me so the bags are always on.
Turns out pleasing you or anybody else ain't a priority in my life

And this explains putting it on a forum...how?
In any event, Givi's are great bags but, not for that bike. I am a total 'bag' guy and have yet to have a problem, ever, with some one messing with my ride. Hell, if you're ever in a jam, chances are real good I left the keys in it. Just bring it back full.

Proud of my paint job and the pinstripe I added, Ordered the pinstripe brush from Amazon and it came in a couple of days ago so this is my first attempt at pinstriping.
Adding Givi's to the Bonneville was a problem. I had to order the mounts from England and what I have now are actually the second set I bought. First set was ugly and required relocating the rear turn signals. So after more research I found a couple of other mounting racks. One actually made by Givi but it was a big chunk of plastic and the one I bought was a nice chrome rack

Look. You don't have to like me to agree with what I am saying. That bike is abnormally gorgeous in this day and age, even more notable because it isn't some $50,000 custom job. It is elegant yet still retains that motorcycle 'thing'; oil, gas, moving parts, scooter.
Leather.
I am trucking telling you. Leather. That would put it right over the top. Probably be less a PITA than what you're doing and you won't have to say the word...givi.

The bags they make for it Triumph Bonneville Luggage online are small and expensive.
Trying to integrate the Givi's to the bike is why I painted and pinstriped
.... and more people seem to find the windshield offensive than the bags

I agree with Larry.

I do also, modern plastic bags on that looks like 40 series tires on 17 inch wheels on a classic muscle car. More functional, but not a visual match. Your work is great, dont get me wrong.
