We should change this into the Jeff Foxworthy version "You might be riding a bagger if..."

I'll start....you might be riding a bagger if you carry more tools & parts with you than Autozone, or if you have more spare clothes on/in your bike than in your closet.

i consider a 'bagger', a bike with bags. not just as an afterthought though, ala sportster, etc. but a bike that was designed with bags as part of the package.

As do I.

Old man rode a Dresser my whole life, still has one to this day.

Looks good next to my Dyna too.

Bagger is slang for the FL line.

Bagger means "I'm gonna be gone for awhile".

A Heritage or Switchback or any other Softtail, Dyna or Sporty with bags are not baggers to me because you can strip them down.
Bagger = touring chassis

OR, as someone already mentioned a woman that you need to put a bag over her head.
bagger = butterface
This.

My uncle bought a 65 Electra Glide "Full Dresser" and my cousin still has it ...

I bought a 87 Yamaha Venture "Sport Tourer" - Solid Bags, Fairing & Lowers, & Wind Shield

Today the sound of the word "Bagger" reminds me of "Cows Udders" - kinda gross -

I call my 09 Road Glide a Touring Bike (but no one else does) and I'm sticking with it

A bagger is any touring model that looks like **** with the baggs off.
