Default Fat Bob saddlebags

Ive been searching for aftermarket saddlebags ( bolt on) for my 13 Fat Bob, nothing seems to fit. Anyone have Photos of there solution, without haveing to move the directionals. Thanks guys, I know theres bags outthere that'll fit without having to pay $8oo at Harley.

Default River Road Saddlebags for the FXDF

No directional signal relocation necessary. Mounting bracket change is, however, needed.

Default oops.

Sorry, those are not bolt-on, they're throw-over.

I went with the "Spear" shock cutout bags from Viking Bags. They came with mounting hardware, but I had to space them out another 1/2" to clear the belt guard and the axle on the left side. For $200, they are pretty nice bags and they hold quite a bit. I will take some pictures later if you're interested in seeing what they look like.

I spent about an additional $5 on hardware from Home Depot to mount them how I wanted them.
