Ditto. T-Bags get the trick done for me.

whoa! Dude these are some sick looking bags - something I have been looking for ... for quite some time. How did you mount them? Did they come with brackets that fit dyna? (I have a 2010 street bob)

+ 1 for Ironbags. See ironbags.com for pics of dynas with bags. Look good imho.These will outlast the bike.

Thanks!

I had the original-sized saddlebags (the custom builder set) before I got the slim ones and I mounted them myself. Pretty easily.

However, the slim ones have an easier mounting bracket which could be seen on their website. I had my mechanic install these (explanation on that link), but it looks far easier to do.

Yes, the brackets were included as well. They even have an option to get detachable brackets, but I'm happy with them as hardbags.

I was going for hardbags that would not make my Dyna look too bulky. I considered the HD brand hardbags, but I didn't like the shape or the price.

Oh, and painting them to match definitely took the "visual weight" of the bags down as well.
