I can remember when you said that about a 2n1. Nor want passing lamps on your bike. And now bags. Guess whats next? Its only a matter of time...

Bags are very useful. When they are needed, no getting around it unless your buddies will pack for you.

I say bag it. I installed the cycle vision baggertail not too long ago and it really wouldnt be that hard to remove if you wanted. Its no quick detach but I bet it could be done in 15 minutes or so. I dig the look of hard bags on the fatboy and DeLuxe. I think I posted before but I used FL style fiberglass true extended bags and I think they look great but hey thats on my bike with my opinion. Its your bike and your opinion that matters here so what direction are you leaning?
I need to wash and take a few pics tomorrow so Ill try to either post some here for you or maybe even start a new topic.
If you do bag it I highly recommend the cycle visions. Its good and sturdy and I just dont like they way the other brackets attach. Dont seem like they would be too sturdy to me.
Good Luck and if you have any questions let me know.

I say no bags Drew...but if you have to have them, you gotta go with HD hard bags.

My buddy has a sick Deluxe with hard bags, it can work if done right.



There might be a speaker or two in those bags as well

That looks sick! Where in the SFV are you? I would love to check out your bike.

When is the Love Ride? I thought they pulled the plug on it?
