Can anyone tell me if saddlebags off a 03 heritage will fit an 06 fatboy? Thanks

I hope you'll get a more definitive answer than this but if the Fatboy has the turn signals in the fender rail (and I think they do) I don't think the Heritage bags will fit, as the Heritage has the turn signals in a bar down by the tail light, out of the way.

Heritage Springer bags will fit as they are designed to work with the stock softail turn signal location. See my sig. You may have to buy some studs and the lower bag mount that fits behind the passenger peg or footboard.

If you post up a picture of your bike folks can give you definitive answers. And of course there is the aftermarket, Boss Bags can set you up with the finest products, IMHO better leather than HD (he used to make bags for HD) but they aren't cheap.

^^^what he said. I would recommend either getting custom turn signals or relocation kit prior to any bags. i also recommend new exhaust that is lower non shot gun style. Getting those to things done first will open up a lot more options for larger bags as well.

Good point flstfise if he has the stock exhaust the springer bags won't work.

You can buy fatboy bags easily on eBay, they'll fit stock exhaust and they are a lot cheaper than springer bags, just not as deep, but still better than nothing.

Ran across an inexpensive set if you're interested.
