I'm looking to get a swingarm bag for the left side of my Sporty, and have scoped out the offerings from HD, Lick's and La Rosa just to name a few. I see that the HD bag looks real stiff and has some kind of metal bracketry to mount it, while the Lick's and La Rosa bags look "softer" and appear to use leather straps for mounting.

Any advantage to either type in your experience?

I'm kinda' liking one of the La Rosa models I was looking at because it has an added fuel bottle, which I know to some might not be your fancy.

Other recommendations perhaps? And if you have one mounted, could you please post some pics of it installed, from at least 20 different angles - ...just kidding! Thanks.

I bought a $25 front bag for a wide glide front end and zip tied it to the swing arm, and haven't had a problem.

 

I bought the Licks bag and I'm really happy with the purchase. Great service and product. The Licks bag is very well made, has a hard back unlike the La Rosa which is soft. There is also a group buy on XLforum - works out to a 17% discount. http://xlforum.net/vbportal/forums/s...licks+solo+bag

He does some very nice leather work.

 

You can see the LaRosa in my sig pic. I like it. Soft back, easy to install, very well made. None of these really hold much, but you probably realize that already.
