Smokinbutts HD or Vtwin makes a rear bumper that goes under the fender that rues together the bag mounts. I had one on my road king as you can see in this video. I thought it looked nice.
Its been a while since I was on here but I finally got my saddlebags on my Fatboy. They are police saddlebags and I used the baggertail to mount them. I used the deluxe tour pack hinges. They only took a little filing and drilling to fit. I also added the fat bagger inc. (FBI) ***** to replace the hockey puck looking *****. I think they turned out pretty good and now I don't need to always have a backpack with me.
Goddamn that looks good, how solid are they side to side?
I haven't got to ride with them on very much yet, but they seem pretty good. They do shake a little and I may eventually put a brace in between them but for now I am just going to leave them as is.

Altho tying them together may help, my indie knows as well as others here that that alone will not make them solid..maybe strong enough to live with tho..
I would like my indie to copy the really strong mounts that was built in this thread
