I really like the Motocentric stuff. The sissy bar bag is $149, but the deal is the cruiser pack at $49 or with the cruiser roll added at $80! They mount on back rests up to 14" wide. Check them out here.

I bought 2 of these link Marsee Cruiser bags, one for the wife's Deluxe and one for my Street Glide. They fit great on the backrest and sit on the luggage rack. Racerpartswholesale had run them for $95 at one time.

For the money, this bag is great. And it's adjustable to fit just about anything. Check out the video and other pictures.

I tried mounting my saddleman 3400 on my bike Sunday. I was disappointed that it didn't fit over my oversized mustang passenger backrest pad. Then I tried again. I stretched it very tight and pinched the pad flat with my fingers as I pulled it over the pad. It fit. Try again.

I too have the 3400 and it tightly fits over the largest HD back rest. I had to take the adjustable sling off. I actually mounted behind the nonadjustable sling to provide some protection to the bag. There is a **** on the back of my back rest that allows me to adjust the height of the back rest that digs into the bag.

Kuryakyn Full Dresser as seen in my signature picture. Unlike some of the cheap doodads Kuryakyn sells, this is a well made article and is very versatile. It attaches and removes in seconds and rolls into a hotel like a suitcase. Here is a video showing it's features.
