Default Lets see your saddlebags

Hi all.

I have a 2003 1200 XLC and i am looking to put some saddlebags on it. I would love to see some saddlebags on your bike so i could see what suits my taste. Since my bike is silver and black I think I am interested in the bags with rivets but would love to see what similar bikes look like with any type of saddlebags.

Thanks,

deep.

you will love mine! (and so do i)
willie & max knock offs i think also from leatherup.

i cut off the part that connected the bags and replaced with ez brackets- this is very similar to my bag (not sure that they still sell my exact bag):

very easy on and off (just unlock with the key and they pop off):

Studded bags on an Iron. Not the best pic to display them but you get the idea. No brackets yet, they're coming. These are just thrown over for groceries and stuff for now.

Is it just me or are your bags on backwards?

I was thinking the same thing. They also look they could have the cross-over yoke tightened up a bit so they site higher.
