I'm looking for Saddle Bags for my 2011 Fat Bob. I got Easy Brackets so I can remove them and just need the bags.

I really like the look of the HD Rigid Locking Bags, but after looking at the inside, I'm not sure it'd be great with the Easy Brackets system. Basically, I want something that is a soft looking leather, with no big buckles or studs. I want something modern and sleek looking.

Any suggestions??

 

I am also looking for a pair of hard saddle bag that can be secured with a locking system so that I can put my rain coats and bike cover. Otherwise, when ever I go riding, my rain coat and shoes will take up half the space of my back bag. My fatbob is matt black so matching colour saddle bags will be just great.

 

Try looking at some Road King tour pack and bag setups... I've seen ones that look like rigid boxes that have leather stretched over them, looked pretty slick.

 

Thanks for your suggestion Stomper-63. You are right, it looks quite seamless with the seat combination and has a rigid look even though it's leather. This must be the Boss saddle bags right? However, I am looking for one that can be secured with a lock to deter from theft as I live in a City call Singapore where there are still people who like to take things which does not belong to them.

I saw one that's from HardStreet and it's quite neat too. I'm going to make some enquiry to check if I should get the Satin finish or the unpaint finish. Cheers.

 

What are your concerns with the rigid bags not working well with the easy brackets? I had a set of the rigid saddlebags with the ghost brackets on my sportster and I thought it worked pretty good. I just didnt like how far they stuck out. I am working on finding a cheap pair af the rigid bags now that i can mount on my fatbob. I am planning to try to take the mounts from the detachable bags i have now and use them on the rigids for a much cleaner closer look.

 

I'm not sure how they look on a 2011 FatBob but I sure do like the HD MoCo Hard Locking Bags on my 2009 FXDC.
