Saddle bag supports
I have a 2007 street bob and was looking to buy some throw-over saddle bags. I think I need some supports to keep the bags away a little from the bike. I have been searching for some but so far no luck. Has any one found any? By the way I have the detachable sissy bar with the turn signal relocation kit. Thanks.
RE: Saddle bag supports
I will post this response in the hopes that I am incorrect and someone will correct me, butI don't believe you can us saddle bag supports along with the detachable hardwear for your sissy bar. I use universal bag supports because they were inexpensive and avail. I could not find any supports offered by HD for the 07 SB, but you can check out J&P at the below link for your bike.

RE: Saddle bag supports
I have a set of almost new throw-overs going up for sale. They're studded slants, top grain leather (10-12oz) with the box top lids. They work without guards if you keep the detachable sissy bar on. It puts them far enough away to stay out of the moving parts.
PM me if you have an interest. They were about $275.00 + shipping new. Selling them to go to bolt ons & moving the tail lights.

I'm using the FoxCreek Leather Throw Overs and I don't need any supports and I didn't have to relocate the rear turn signals. I don't even need to tie them on which makes it easy to take them on and off.
I recommend the fender protector that fits over the rear fender...but on my black denim it still leaves some rub spots but they clean right off.

You might also look into Easy Brackets. They have a kit that mounts on the ends detachable hardware (presuming you've relocated your signals to the rear fender instead of just put them out to the side of the mount point,) so you can still use your sissy bar. That puts the bags so far away from the wheel/swingarm that you can't get interference and you can pull the bags off in a few seconds.

Wondering the same as Sparky B. Foxcreek gas good stuff. I bought a pair of lined gaunlet dearskin gloves from them about 2 years ago, and they are great.
Just to note about Foxcreek, all American very high quality products, super great service and fast free delivery. I ordered my gloves on a Thursday night off their website, and got them Friday afternoon.

RE: Saddle bag supports
Thanks for all the replies. Splatter I did just 2 weeks ago relocate my turn signals out to the end of the docking stem. Before that I was just using the kury rear break/turn light. After hearing somebad reports about not being able to see the light well andstrange stuffgoing onwith theelectrical I ended up reinstaling the stock rear breaklight and buying and instaling the turn signal relocation kit . I'm not a big fan of the rear turn signal relocation kit and I like the look and visabitity I have now.Im in no big hurry for the bags but they do come in handy. If no one produces a good set for my configuration,I have been thinking of using a different bracket for softails thatuses just one ancore point and tapping on to the sideplates. It would be removable then with the sissy bar . Does anyone see a problem with drilling the sideplates they seem pretty stout?
