I'm debating this for the increased storage capacity and the look, but unsure if it'll look awkward on a Softail. Wanted to see if anyone else had already done this conversion and could post photos.
I think it looks awkward with a shotgun exhaust, but I like the look with a 2:1 or true dual exhaust. Not mine, but this is the picture that got me thinking about adding hard bags.
Brand new off the floor heritage 107 2020 bought in 2020. Now at 11k. Only rode it 1.5 years rest of the months it was down because crash bar went into frame so it has gotten a new frame. Got it back from Harley-Davidson about a month ago. I had 10k serv done like a week after receiving my MC. Since I have issues with it not wanting to start and now my check engine light came on another thing since I bought the MC the front running light keep getting burned out I have to replace about every month.
Can someone please tell me my MC shouldnt act like this especially when its still stock and only the same Harley-Davidson place has done all the serv.
@sevsec I just got done looking into this and it'll work but ONLY if you go with a 2 into 1 exhaust that drops it below the axle. I ended up going a different route with custom leather bags. The Hogworkz tourpack set up is SWEET though and one of the best mods I've done. I bought their mount and sourced my own tourpack w/luggage rack. They make great stuff. Best of luck with your project!
