Hard bags!!! Like those last couple of posts, those bikes look sick with the bags!

Having a Heritage, I don't even know how you guys do it without bags. Whenever I ride, my friends (without bags) wind up putting all kinds of stuff into my bags as well!!!

Well, I was zip tieing on the solo bag tonight and that will have to do until i figure this out. I have found some bags already, I just need the money to buy them. Then, I gotta get the mounts. Chrome or black guys? I like the chrome myself.

Chrome mounts. They'll give a little balance and set off that black paint. Gives it a little pop!

I'm not sure if you're 100% set on the hard bags or not, but you might look at the leatherpro.com bags. They are lined and supported with plastic, have molded ABS backs, come in different sizes and styles, are lockable to the bike and now they have key locks. One of the great things about them is that they come off in seconds if you don't want them. I have had the 3200 bags on mine for four years now and they still look great. I'm not affiliated with them or anything but I really do like my bags.

Hope this helps.

If I were to go get leather bags I would either get Road King classic bags or Boss Bags.

For the love of god that's a sweet bike. I am seriously considering hard bags myself.

Road King Custom Saddlebags on my Fattie with the Bagger Tail conversion.
I can literally get this setup off my bike in 10 minutes and be back to regular fatboy.
Not quick detach, but how long does it take to pull out four strut bolts and 2 behind the passenger footpeg.
I really like the HD hard bags too, but I just felt like the leather RK bags fit my look better.
