Those are the "enduro" saddlebags. They were made hete in the states buy a guy in a shed as sort if a labor of love. The Originals were vacuum-formed plastic. When he passed away the business died with him, but a few companies now make fiberglass replicas of varying degrees of quality. All of them are fairly expensive, I don't know how many pairs made it to your side of the pond.

I don't know what they're made of but I do know that my Mazda which sits right next to it and is also undercover shows no signs of rusting at all so whatever alloy Morgan is using it is definitely not very corrosion proof

All rotors/brakes discs should be made of cast iron. I have just had 3 months extended holiday without using the car. Sorry not M3W, with hardly any rust on the discs. My car is left in the street.
How long without use on the 3 wheeler? John.
