The bike is a 07 Soft Tail that'slowered. I was going to sell it, but have changed the mind. The bike needs a set of saddle bags, so I can pick up documents and other miscellaneous items while I'm out. I would like something simple, compact, and clean. I would also like quick release brackets. Your pictures and suggestions would be appreciated.

This is a picture of the bike. Hope it shows up!

 

mine are not quick release, and i do not know if they will fit your bike, but they are sim[le compact and clean.

 

Great looking bike.
I like my Leather Pro bags.
Mine are the LP3200 but if I did it again I would have gotten the 4000 series size.








and this is what's left when you remove them:
(as you can see, I have the removeable backrest too)

 

I sent my original sagging studded Heritage bags to David w/Osprey Saddlebags. He used my originals as patterens for these. The use the stock backings (Non-Quick release - but that is avai for stock bags. Therefore they mount exactly as orig. They are the exact size shape etc as the originals, but WAY more sturdy w/ built in reinforcements. They're 3 or 4 yrs old now and still look new. I want to say it was $400 & change. The only thingI was unhappy about was the type of rivets he used. I have since replaced them.

Thanks for the pictures guys. It can become a little overwhelming searching for parts to go on this bike. The parts are so expensive, one would want to get it right the first time. One draw back to ordering from the Internet , is that you don't actually get to see your merchandise until it' delivered to your front door. The other side to that is, it is nice to have forum.

Thanks again.

More pics would be appretiated.

 

Nice Soft Tail! Looks like your going to have to relocate your rear turn signal lights first.

 

Mine are from Iron Bags

They are the Thunder model with the optional cargo straps.

+1 on the Iron bags.

These are dirt cheap on flea- bay. Have them mounted on EZ Brackets so they come right off and you can't even tell it has bags for the bike. I had to relocate my rear turn signals to the tail light as you can see from the rear shot. I can hunt up the link for the bags if you are interested.

 

I also got mine from Osprey, and love them...

If you click on the Heritage page, there's a couple of pics of my bike with the bags. He can make them as plain or fancy as you want them, I kind of like the plain look myself. These were less than $500 with the Easy Brackets included. He really does a nice job.
