Yeah, I check all this stuff everyday. For $1000 less I'll get the Conley's version or wait for the LeatherPro's.

That's crazy. If I had a T sport I would sell the bags and get another set for less than 1/2. They are just ok bags. Am I missi.g something?

I agree. Supply and demand dictates that a price like that is actually doable. A friend of mine paid $1100 for a perfect set.

Call me crazy, I don't even like the T-Sport bags very much. I'm gonna pick up a set of these Saddleman bags for my DX:

Sorry for the poorly placed punch line.

Crazy what these bags go for! Looking forward to seeing what the LeatherPro dude comes up with.
The ones you mounted up there on the DX look good! What're you gonna do about the chrome badges on the side? It doesn't look bad, just might be a tad cleaner blacked out or removed....

Anyway, great thread!

Thanks.

Yeah, I gotta paint those chrome pieces black and I am going to mount them without the easy brackets to get them closer to the fender aw swell when I get a chance.

Thanks, but I am just getting started. I am trying to figure out what to do for big bore and heads now. And of course I am still waiting on original bags. I might have to swap cams again when i do the bit bore build too. I ma thinking I will send heads to Big Boyz for porting and polishing, get a .030 head gasket, send my cylinders there for boring as well and maybe throw in some Andrew's 37 cams.
