A few pages back you'll find a thread titled something Sportstour. Lots of pics on touring Sportsters in it.

Are you referring to Harley hard touring saddlebags? If so, check out CycleVisions.com. They have brackets for them and a picture of them on the Sporty.

Bud, do yourself a favor, stay away from HD hard bags. Over priced, parts have expiration date with big expense to replace.

I had rigid leather covered bags on my Sporty. I originally didn't like the look but damn were they convenient on long rides! (My RKC is basically a stretched version of my 1200 Custom!)

Thanks for the inputs... Long story short I got some new bags for my Ultra and was curious if there was an easy way to mount my old bags on my wife's '11 SuperLow... well she was curious actually lol.

I remember seeing the black sporty setup like a touring bike... sweet?
