Here is the Lo loaded down before my last trip. My Fat Boy bags and roll bag. Usually during the hot time of the day, my jacket and chaps are cargo netted to the back seat. I also have a bigger grand touring bag, but it sits higher than me.

On our trips we hit all the twisty roads from start to finish. We ride hard, scraping boards means it was a good day.

The Lo before the RK Classic bags:

Quality is pretty good. One of the side pockets in each bag has a rain cover.

The only bad I can say about them is if they're left in the sun for a few weeks the black will fade into a grey. I used a small one for a long time before I got my saddlebags and it got pretty weathered but that was a full year of being outside every day. Use the rain cover, fading won't be an issue.

Hey all. I have it listed in the classifieds so if I am out of line sorry; however, I am selling the Drag Specialties seat with Rider Back Rest and since it looks like it is made for the Lo I thought I would get the word out here, and it feels good, too.

I am starting to find it hard to surf the Softail forum these days. It just seems unnatural to see posts about Street Bobs and Fat Bobs in the Softail forum. Especially when my last bike was an 07 Street Bob and I hung out in the Dyna forum.

Yeah, same here. I don't bother with it to much ever since the new bikes came out. I don't have any interest in the 18's at all. And that's all they seem to talk about. I go in the off topic once in a while, but other than that i come to this thread only

Really need a new forum for the 18's and up. It's just going to get worse.

That happened to me about a year or so ago, too many "internet experts" for me. I follow the Engine Mechanical page and touch base here every now and then but if I need to do some research I'm checking out HTT, better info, more industry professionals and much less BS

Lot of great info there.

Plenty of BS there too. Just got done reading about people’s rear Dunlop AE’s lasting 17-20k miles. Bringing in an adult whale on 6 lb Tess might be more believable.
