The day I bought her 8/2012

The first set of bags...

Second set of bags...

Now she's my FatGlide

 

The Fat Glide, interesting name, great looking bike.

 

Decided to go with that instead of "Fat Bagger" since all my buddies have started calling it my Fatglide... Either way my softail tends to get more looks than most of their SG's do. Thanks for the comment by the way.

 

Here's mine.. 08 Heritage with Kuryakyn Fairing, SG saddlebags & a King tour pak.. I even went one step farther and installed volume controls from a touring bike so I can control my tunes with my thumb.. Had to purchase a steering wheel interface and install inside the fairing but it was no big deal. Had Soundz Customz install an Arc amp and Focal speakers in the fairing, now I can hear the tunes clean & clear at any speed...

LeatherPros LP3200 with quick detach.

The thing is that I hate having the bags on but I really love the functionality. Went to work yesterday with a nap sack for my laptop, lunch, shoes and other crap and I hated it so I went in today with the bags. The bags are where it's at for sure.


I need to leave these things on for a couple months to get used to the look Maybe ?


Maybe. I have the stock bags on my '96 flstn, didn't think I'd like 'em (I sure wish they were bigger/more useful) but they've been on for almost 2 months now and I don't hate 'em. Yours look way better than my old stock ones too.

 

tlar1540, I put the controls from a 98 Electra Glide on my bike last winter to do the same thing, instead of the one I am using now. I haven't found what I am going to use,,,but sounds like you have just the ticket. I'll have to go on the net and see what I can find.

 

Here's mine, can't remember if I posted it before or not...lol Don't know how to make it bigger if someone can help. They are the Boss Bag 50 Bag.

 

RDY2ROLL, you should post more pics. Your ride is very nice.

 

Silver Fox - If you buy an interface, I would go with the PAC SWI-RC one. I purchased the Metra Axxess - ASWC one and I've had issues with the volume not functioning all the time. One time you turn the bike on, it works every time, the next, it doesn't work very well (and the connection are done right).. The PAC SWI one, you wire differently and they have way better support on their products. I believe I have the instructions for both of these if you need them. I think this winter I am going to change my interface over to the PAC SWI one. I have installed both and believe the PAC SWI (Installed this on a buddy's Softail) is the way to go... I still have the switch housing for the right side and am thinking of using that side to control the Shotgun Shocks when I get one installed.. That may be another winter project for the bike..

 

I think your bike looks very cool both ways!!
