Default Hard Bags>?

Has any one installed hard bags off of a street glide or road king? Want to do this but HATE the factory option of hard bags for the dyna, they are way to rounded and dumb looking.

I will be this summer. I plan on using the easy/edge/ghost type brackets so that they can be detachable. Once I have it done, I will post pics etc...

Of course you have to do something special. Nobody makes a good looking hard bag for the Dyna.
JRK posted his process. I have posted pics of my "see if this works" mounts. Having the final mounts made this week. The basic bag mount that I am using is off a FL Shovelhead. Most of my posts that deal with building an FL-Dyna start with Fl-Dyna. Do a search if interested.
Oh, and you would need to change your exhaust.
