I agree Deluxe bags are relatively tiny especially if compared to Road King or Springer bags. I went with them only to match the bike and definitely glad I got them installed detachable.. as mentioned almost never have them on. Unless you are going to change the stock shotgun pipes your choices are limited(at least through HD). I really like the swingarm bags look on the bike and it is definitely functional. Swingarm bag is a great addition and have had quite a few favorable comments on the look of it on the bike.
