I can only speculate that Harley specified Rockford Fosgate as both are US Based entities. OEM's get to dictate what they want in their own branded products.

If this is perceived as knocking other brands it was never intended to be so. Rather it was posted in the spirit of what this forum is. I will refrain from posting further on this given any possible perceptions of brand bashing. It is ultimately up to a rider to make his or her own decision

Conversely ASTM D 261 strength tests of various fabric types used in luggage systems gives and indication of suitability of various substrates:

On the debate of various fabrics it is important to consider the suitability of a fabric for its intended application. If one is going to ride in wet conditions no amount of coating of a fabric (be it with fluorocarbons or other) is going to ensure longevity. The same applies for UV coatings...

Apologies If I have laboured this however we feel strongly about this- given the amount of glib, nonsensical claims made by some manufacturers. We prefer the pragmatic factual approach...
