Default Swing arm bag/left side license plate

I've been searching for a swing arm bag that will work with a left side license plate mount and I haven't had any luck. Anyone know of a bag that will work?

They make a curved and straight axle mounted plate that works, you just can't use axle covers with it (unless you somehow cut the axle cover).

I'm running the road6customs plate and the swing arm bag from HD on my blackline.

It works pretty well. Its not as big as I would like and you have to cut the holes for the straps but I have been satisfied with it.

I think the type of plate mount you use has more to do with being able to fit both than the swingarm bag does. I used the roto plate jr because it sticks back from the axle allowing me to also do the left side swingarm bag. It's tight but fits and still allows for passenger pegs. The bag can be mounted almost wherever you want down the swingarm either with the straps or hard mounting it.

My swing arm bag is from Hog Deluxe and mounts in front of the axle nut, so it should work with your license plate frame...
