Default bolt on "Switchback" bags
OK I know these have been around longer than the Switchback and some of you guys have managed to adapt FLH bags for less but damn these are nice http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Hard-...item2a133985af a little too rich for my blood now but maybe someday, I'll bet they're cheaper than getting the switchback bags from Harley

notice if you scroll over the pictures it shows the mounting system which looks really easy.Looks like one of those things that makes you want to slap yourself on the forhead and say why didn't I think of that!

They look like Heritage Softail bags, or a knock-off to look like them.

I'm not a fan of hardbags on a dyna but after looking at them, I quickly imagined a ribbed goodson a/c similiar to what Surfor Chop has, and ribbed covers around the engine.

Painted on the rear fender or tank would read 'Ribbed for her pleasure." I don't mean that sarcastically. Just in jest.
