Being relatively new to the HD scene, I wasn't familiary with the terms "bagger" and "dresser"... "Bagger" I get; it's a bike with bags (such as my RKC)... But what does "dresser" mean. Is it as in a fully "dressed" bike? Or as in big like a bedroom dresser? Or ????

 

I always thought it was one a those peoples at the super WalMart that ask me " paper or plastic"

 

Ditto, If it's not a HD touring, it's not a bagger. Just the way I feel everything else with bags are imitations.

 

For me a "bagger" has to have the bat wing fairing and a set of hard bags. A "dresser" is short for "full dress" i/e electraglide with tour pac, lowers,lights,whip antennas,etc. Also known as a "garbage barge". If you can shuck the fairing and bags and it still looks like a normal bike then it a'int a bagger to me.

 

I had a Heritage with a tour-pac. I traded it in on a bagger. I'm going to put a tour-pac on it and turn it into a dresser.

 

I thought that's what you put over a ugly girls head when you took her home !

 

Originally a Bagger was the FL framed bikes , then they veered off with the Heritages and the like ..

I consider a Bagger , Garbage Barge , Garbage Wagon , and Dresser to be any of the FL Touring Bikes , The FLTR and the EG's today ..

If it aint a model specific touring bike , then it aint a Bagger in the real sense of the word

 

I Agree with the others, it would be any of the HD Touring Bikes, anything else is a "Wanna Be".

 

So long as it aint a 2 bagger, it's ok with me !

 

Nope! That would be a two bagger!!!
