Default Bad & G solo bag + slammer kit

Good morning all.
Has anyone run a bag & G solo bag (the bag that leans up against the rear shock) and a burly slammer kit?. I have stock shocks andmy bag works fine. I'm imagining that once the slammer kit gets installed. The bag would start rubbing the axel. Any input on this?

I have the Burly slammers on my 14 Street Bob and just received a set of Bad & G bags on Monday. I haven't had a chance to install them yet, not to mention it's still a little cold here in MA for riding. I'm hoping I'll get to test them out sometime next week. When I ordered them from the website I got the impression that it wouldn't be an issue unless the bike was lowered with blocks instead of shorter shocks.

Let me know how it goes. Im interested to know how the bag looks if its hanging under the swing arm (if in fact it actually does)

Will do for sure. I'm going to be away all weekend but I'm hoping to get them on there by Monday night.

1 word, WOW. What a bike man. Loving the look. Thanks for the info. It is greatly appreciated.

Quick question, does the ride change when you move the fork clamps down on the forks like you did?

Bag looks awesome on there. I got the smaller bag for the left side too. Once the damn snow stops up here I'll get them on and snap a couple quick pics. I like your idea on using the "document sleeve" as a holster.

Update fellas: I have decided to sell my set of burly slammers and purchase progressive 11" shocks. I am not a light man and I read alot of reviews about bottoming out alot. I will be installing the shocks later today so I will post pictures up of the bike with the 412s.
