Default Swing Arm Bag Recommendations?

I'm looking for a swing arm bag for my 2004 XL1200C.

Is the Harley Davidson bag, with its solid mount, worth the extra money?

Does anyone have a picture of the inside of the Harley Davidson bag?

Check out BadG&customs bags and legendary cycles sells mounting kits separately or with their bags

If you are considering HD bag, one could assume you have an open budget?

The bracketry and ability to retain its shapes is desirable and my choice.
(Except for price)

Only out of box thought I'll add is a getting a left & right side match bag set.
(Double your capacity and add symmetry.)

No pictures from me, yet side bags have been discussed in depth in this forum so
a search might bring the OP answers faster than monitoring this thread.

Good luck with your decision.

Money is always limited as I'm retired on a fixed budget.

Having said that, I'd rather spend a little extra and be happy with my selection then spend a little less and wonder what I should have purchased.

Thanks for everyone's input!

Is a soft mount a good compromise?
