After seeing Todd (SURFOR Chop) and Joe's (JRK####....sorry Joe can't remember the numbers) old style hard bags I had to get a set. I finished modding the brackets and bolted them up. I need to re-drill the rear holes and get them at the right angle but I like the results so far. The set I bought seem to be a bit smaller than theirs but I don't mind a bit. I'll paint them in the spring and move onto something else.

 

Hard to believe your bike began as a Dyna...looks GREAT!

 

It is isn't it? I still look at it and think of things I would have done different but I don't plan on changing much. Thanks for the props Jake.

So hows the bagger treating you?

 

Looks good!!

 

Thanks Jaron, by the way.....remember Africa's Got Talent?? That was wrong on so many levels but I figure if I had to see so did everyone else!

 

Hey Rick -

Great job ....

I must agree that your bags don't look quite as big ...





... wonder why ...???

I think that if you brought the rear of the bags up just a tad it would improve the look ....

p.s. By the way, for your reference: the opening on the top of the bags is 21" by 7" wide ... the base tapers down to about 19" by 5" ....

 

I'm trying to forget that one!! Thanks for the reminder sicko!! I still think the new Walmart Ornament is the greatest!! I went and bought one...............Just Kidding!!

 

Thanks Todd, I plan on re-drilling to bring the rear up a little. I think the bags are old aftermarket knock-offs. They aren't fiberglass but they also don't fit into the plastic/ABS catagory. Maybe they were originally for a Sporty? Once they're painted and mounted properly they will look like they belong.

 

I just wanted to make sure you had that vision in your head tonight, inspiration for a dream maybe??? The Wal-Mart one was good, it was forwarded and appreciated by all.

 

The "King" is awesome. I absolutely love the ride and it looks great just sitting there too. The only mods to date are the A/C, slip on Rineharts, and a PC V. Thing runs like a raped ape!
