I like these bags on my '05 WG. I moved the signals to the rearmost hole on the struts but they can be moved back easily enough. Others have moved them back further yet, onto the license plate mount. In that case the lights could be moved back to the stock position later and the plastic mount replaced if the holes made for the signals were objectionable.

Default New LeatherPro Product Coming

Long time lurker, first time poster!

I just bought a Super Glide and while talking with the HD dealership about saddlebags they informed me that LeatherPros is working on a saddlebag design for Dynas that does not require relocating the turn signals. Should be out in 6-8 weeks. I'm on the list to get one of the first sets, so will post pics as soon as possible.

It will be a little sooner than that, I am powdercoating the brackets for the first few pairs today. Hope to take pictures before the weekend.

Those are close to the same capacity as the Road King hard bags if I am not mistaken ... if I were to do it all over I would go with those ...
Surfor Chop, Thanks.....I wasn't sure about the bags when I first bought the SB but they grow on you plus no one else has them either. They are plenty roomy for most day or maybe even a short trip if you packed right.

You are right they have been discontinued so years ago but you might find them New at the HD Store or have your dealer do a search.

The bags were Dyna Big Bags.

HD Part # is 90300-98A and on mine the other side is marked 90301-98A ( I am not sure why unless 301 is a replacement bag)

You can find them on Ebay from time to time but be sure they include the mounting frame.

Here is a link for a new set.....Pricy but not that bad for the quality of the bags.

The price is steep but I really like the Boss bags on my 04 Dyna. They are quick detachable with almost nothing exposed as far as mounts when they are removed. I believe I had to move the rear turn signals though.

Fantastic! I live in Neenah, so if you need anyone to "field test" them for you, let me know!

Are "these bags" Cortech throwovers? They do look nice.
