If I remember, will take a better pic. but basically, the bottom of the saddlebag aligns with the bottom of the fender. So you can take that as a reference. I believe, the exhuast just needs to be below the axle.

I have the v&h pro pipe and it sits a little higher then yours.
I think your bike turned out exactly like my long term vision for mine. Again, excellent work.

Really nicely done. If HD made this, I would buy this. Their current offerings are either too big or just miss the mark in the Softails. What a great setup!

Agree 100%. Perfect blend of touring and softails. I certainly don’t have the time to do that setup myself.

Can you still use the quick detach system for sissy bars? If you could give me a close-up picture between the fender and saddlebag to show clearances and such it would be awesome, thanks.

If you goggle cyclevisions baggertail, it will take you to their install instructions on pdf with good pictures. You should get a better understanding of how it mounts up.
