Venture saddlebag lid guard rails

[Papa Fred]

G'mornin gang...

I'm trying to find guard rails for the saddlebag lids on my 2000 RSV. I tried a set for one of the dozens of Harley models, but they weren't a good fit. They were from an aftermarket source, and were basically junk.. VERY poorly made and finished.

 

I'm interested in "talking" with anyone out there that has rails on their bag lids, specifically what are they and where did you get them. I've had the Venture since July of 2017, and even with our somewhat shortened riding season up north, I'm already seeing some paint rubbing on the front edge of the bags. Aside from protecting the paint, the rails would also be more shiny stuff on the toy...not a bad thing.

Any guidance is appreciated. Cheers.

I bought them on eBay for my current and previous bikes. Sheepskin97 is the seller

Thanks. I'll try that route.

The Yamaha rails seem to be overall better quality than the aftermarket ones. If you find a set of OEM rails, go with them.
