Default Saddlebags for 17 wide glide?

Does any one know where or who might make a set of bags for a 2017 wide glide preferably throw over that won't require relocating my tail lights and license plate?

Not throw over, and fairly expensive, but Leather Pro's CB series does not require signal relocation and has an optional bracket that moves the license plate back a couple inches for clearance. This is a 2016 WG.

They install/remove quickly with a vise grip like mechanism and only leave small posts behind. In fact, for most riding where I don't want the full bags I made an aluminum bracket holding a La Rosa bag that uses the posts, and keeps me from jamming my knee into a license plate sticking out by itself.

Leather Pros CB3000 bags (CB2900 has a flap lid):


Quick on/off bracket for smaller alternative bag (prior to paint and end caps, La Rosa bag, locks in place with a tie wrap):

Well you can always buy some cheap throw over bags off of Ebay and then pay a body man $700.00 to repaint your back fender.

They have more bags for Dynas. You just need to go over their website a second time and look closer.

I'm about to the point of just accepting I have to relocate the lights and plates even though I feel it screwes up the looks of the bike

I was wondering if a small set of sporty saddlebags would work with a set of supports?

Leather Pros sells the bracket that moves the plate backwards separately for $17. Or, you can make it yourself. It's just a straight piece of metal with four holes that moves the plate back I believe 2".
