Default New saddlebags on my Deuce

The Foxcreek saddlebags arrived last week and the easy bracket finally arrived and I installed the bracket and mounted the bags yesterday. The entire process only took about 2 hours. Overall a very easy install. The hardest part was figuring out where to position the bags. Here are some pics.

The key locking system on the easy bracket is awsome. It takes about 10 seconds to put the bags on and take off.

firestarter,

Looks great! How does the bike look from behind? I'm looking to buy for '07 Fatboy, and was curious how far the bags (with easy brackets)are off the fender.

Thanks,

Axeman

Axeman,

I did not take a picture from the rear. I will take one and post it for you. It might be a day or two. Here is why,

looks good, I also use factory Deuce bags. Best part about easy brackets is you leave the turn signals in the stock location. I will have to redo my bags and easybrackets because I can lower my bags now that I removed the stock shotgun exhaust and installed my Big Radius pipes yesterday.

I've thought about getting Easy Brackets for my stock bags. Might even look for some at Daytona this coming weekend. Woosh, could you or Stangman post a pic of the back of the bags. I was curious as to how the brackets bolt to the bags.

A rear pic would be nice too.

Thanks in advance.
