Default Street bob - largest saddlebags without turn signal relocation

Can anyone recommend saddlebags that don't require moving the turn signals. Max space desired, cool looks don't matter much.

Any other bags no matter how small, the turn signals have to be moved for the simple fact i need 2 mounting holes, the signal is using 1 of them on my 2012 street bob. only other choice is the bags from bad@g they strap on. hope you find something, i'm still un-decided what i want yet.

By the looks of the '12 Street Bob a simple bracket could be made that would raise the lights up as high as would be necessary to install larger bags. Cycle visions sell a hard bag kit with brackets that would bolt right up, and you would only need to raise the lights 1" to 2".

You could use a bracket kit that raises the gas tank 2" like http://www.jpcycles.com/product/721-180, although you would only need the 2 brackets and a couple bolts. I'm sure there are some cheaper around or you could make them cheap enough.

Tourmaster Cruiser III, size Medium, will work. They are throwovers, though. I love my Bad&G solo bag, but it just doesn't carry enough for daily business (PT gear, change of clothes, lunch...).

I finally gave up on the turn signals and relocated them myself and put some nice Leatherpro bags on.
