Mymatrix I am interested in adding street glide bags to my lo. Did you use cycle vision mounts? And how tight are they to the fender? Can you post some hind view pics?

I have a 14 lo and want the 14 SG bags

Thanks in advance!

Also, to slightly derail your post, what bags (and mounts) are you using? How do they compare size wise to standard (if they are not) touring bags? Im wondering because I have some locking leather HD bags on my '14 Lo and I hate them. They are supper small, and the lock is craptastic (I managed to get the key in backwards at one point, with ease).

Techgnosis,
Thanks, I think it did too. The wife is very pleased with her winter makeover.
To answer your saddlebag question, they are stock HD 2014 FLHT saddlebags with Cycle Visions mounting hardware.
You can visit here:
https://www.hdforums.com/forum/softa...lease-104.html
That will answer your question, with pics during the install.

Default Hello fellow lo owners!

Just wanted to thank you all for the posts and great ideas. I've been looking at this forum for 2 years and figured its time to post something. Some amazing Lo's on here. I'm working on my winter project as we speak. Getting wheels and dash panel powdercoated. Going Old School with white walls and possibly some pinstriping. Bassani road rage ready to install and fuelmoto tuner. Last year I pulled tank badges and installed Todds Cycle Strip Bars. Pictures of how shes sitting right now and where she was before round 2 of upgrades. I'll post more when complete.

I am still waiting for my next shipment of parts, but I decided to put my Lo back together to take it for a ride today. First ride this year. First ride with Stage 1. I ran a couple of auto tunes and rode and rode and rode...

The bike is looking good! Normally I don't like any 2-1 exhausts but yours seems to flow and compliment the Lo really well. Good job

Thanks Dave
Still not done yet.
The flow is important to my vision and the final outcome. The pipes seem to fit the look I am going for. They sound really nice as well.
More pics to come...

Here in Brazil, Harley doesn't sell their custom paint tins. So there's this guy here in my city who paints motorcycles for 40 years. I showed him the Silver Lining paint scheme from Harley and he said he could do it to me. He did an amazing job! What do you guys think?
