You could register on the US ST site and ask riders there, since it's a US company.

Considering it's a quite complex mould, and claims to be stronger than OEM, and comes in a range of OEM colours, I'd say US$800 the pair is good buying.  They certainly look to be right in the photos, but I'd hope the paint job on the black one is adversely affected by camera/light, as it looks a bit shabby.

They actually look quite nice. Assuming that their build quality is as they claim, it would be an excellent alternative to OEM or a lucky dip into the second hand market.

Assuming you bought the after market products, how does the quality look, compared to the Honda panniers?

Red and Silver are traditional Honda colours, prior to the more modern tricolour theme of red white and blue, so with a bit more colour matching, and maybe the addition of a yellow boomerang, there is a link to Honda's proud past. Maybe a red tank bra would complete the look?
