Damn those look pretty good from the back when do we get a side view?

 

Here's my mounting solution (stolen with pride from the Dyna forum) that let's you use the QD docking hardware, and just takes a minute to remove the bags. I tried the easy brackets but just didn't like the way they stuck out, and the way they vibrated. Plus, when I was looking at them I found that I could defeat the lock by using a screw driver to un-screw the locking cam from the bottom.

I'd really like to see a side view to see where they sit in relation to the shocks. I wouldn't be using easy brackets but want to see how far back I would need to mount them to clear the shocks. May have to relocate the rear turn sigs as well.

 

Here's some pics I just took.

Wow those do look pretty decent.

 

Nice!!

 

I like the looks of those allot I don't think they're much bigger than my throw overs but I'll bet they're allot easier to get stuff in and out of.How hard do you think it would be to mount them with the included brackets?

 

Using the included brackets would be easy. I did use their grommets, bolts, nuts and washers, just not their mounting bars, I wanted to use my QD brackets instead.
Their mounting bars were drilled and threaded for bag attachment, not just drilled and certainly would do the job and look cleaner and tighter. The supplied brackets would also allow the bags to be mounted a lot lower if you choose.

My Reda saddle bag gas can fits in it perfectly and the ease of getting in and out of it makes it way handier than my soft bags. The gloss black matches my paint perfectly, too.

 

You could put some orange graphics on them if needed, they are available from a lot of sources or your local sign store can cut something out.
