Default HD Swingarm Bag

Looking around the HD site today and saw that they have a new swingarm bag. Looks like it could be a good one?

I'm interested in one of these as the shape looks as though it should hold a few things comfortably, plus should fit securely.
Be good to see a picture of it on a bike to see how it hangs and to compare the size against the 'Licks' or 'La Rosa' Solo Bags.

what nice about the HD ones is that they mount with brackets.

I like it but it seems high compared to the La Rosa.

They look nice. I wonder if they work if you have passenger pegs installed?

They're about the same price-point as the existing bags from competitors. They will probably sell well.

I think that there is going to be a solo version of the Plunderdogs, but I have yet to see one. The quality of my USA-made plunderdogs is fantastic.

I bought and installed this yesterday on my 08 Nightster. It's really nice, built well, and is rock solid on my bike. It's bigger than other swingarm bags, so for me its more funtional. The bag mounts to a frame which bolts to the bike. I'm real happy with it.

I love mine. Well made, fits securely with decent space and looks good.
