it won't allow me access to see your pic ... had this problem earlier with another post. I will try again in a few hours, seems to resolve itself.

 

thanks Romeo ... those bags look good!! best I've seen!

 

They couldn't be any closer, as they are right up against the side plates for my detachable sissy bar. Without the sissy bar though, they'd be closer to the fender by about 5/8".

 

If youre still having trouble seeing posted pics, get your post count up a little more.

This is what the *** of mine looks like with bags similar to yours. I have the QD hardware, and thats the only thing spacing the bags off the fender. If it were any closer, it would interfere with the shocks. And yes, these bags do have shock cutouts
Saddlemen bags with saddlemen mounts. Most people dont like the mount system because its difficult to install.

 

thanks kk ... never heard of saddlemen ... googling it now!

 

Probably not at all what you are interested in, but these work for me.
They look smaller than my "leather" slant bags, but they actually hold more. They are mounted on EZ Brackets. Sorry, but the actual rear view photo came out too dark to see, this one was the next best view.

I just got tired of undoing the buckle releases and prying off the Velcro to open the bags, so I bought these for $144. Very fast to open and close.

 

KK6pg are those Saddlemen on quick release brackets?

 

Look at it this way. Being big from behind can be an asset.LOL

 

how about some side shots..
And, do tell more about your signal relocation.. Looks like road glide parts?

 

Yes how about a side shot.
