Default Wide Glide Bags

I have a 2005 Dyna Wide Glide with the hardmount backrest and have had trouble finding a good looking set of saddlebags that fit well. I want them to mount with Ghost or Easy Brackets so they come off easily. I would like to avoid relocating the turn signals if possible. Does anyone have any suggestions?

lots of bags out there. I got the cheaper HD bags. they do the trick however. used easy brackets on my 06 WG and didn't have to relocate the turn signals.

After doing a lot of research, I ended up getting a set of Boss Bags for my 05 WG. I'd recommend moving the directionals. I replaced mine with the smaller Kuryakyn's, which mount to existing holes in the fender strut. I think with the Harley relocation kit, you may have to drill new holes. Anyway, this was really easy to do. The docking hardware for the Boss Bags is practically invisible when the bags are off, and that too was an easy job. I think I spent maybe a little over an hour replacing the lights and installing the bags. The bags are expensive, but I figure so was the bike they went on, so I might as well go with the best. I'd check them out.

Another vote for Boss. Pricey but great quality and look good. I've had mine for a year/ year and a half and still look like new.They've been in all kinds of weather too.
