I saw one a few years ago and the owner thought it was the bees knees. I thought it was pretty funky looking. Unless you change pipes with something like Vance and Hines short shots, ya gotta support them somehow. That is your bag support so gotta take that into consideration. With a lot of coin it could look cool so buy a Switchback if you want a convertible.

There was a company Bruisers that has now closed its doors ... made a kit to be able to drop the bags ... had a side panel replacement part that looked like the old FXR side panel (upside down triangle) ... also had a method of making the saddlebag support bracket look less obtrusive ...
I think that without anything 'dressing it up' ... it looks kind of 'steam punk' ...

I'll try to find a couple of photos of bikes with the Bruiser kit ...

Only photo I could find of the side panels ...
