Default FL saddlebags on a Fatboy

Has anyone put FL hard bags on a Fatboy? I am thinking of doing the same and would like to see some pics of how it might look. I have seen the mounting brkts made by Summax for this conversion. Thanks all.

Talking fat boy

I have done it and it looks great. I have used the leather bags, since they tilt a bit inwards giving the more agile look. I have used a cycle vision chrome mount and a relocation kit for the turn signals.

Heritage and fatty's are practically identical in the *** end. So if it works on a heritgae it will work on a fatty.
