BB Reproduction Bubble Bags. Used from early 50's through early 60's. Being white, they get a lot of attention. I modified the brackets so they would fit the way I wanted and they are connected together through the bottom of the rear fender so they won't sag when fully loaded. I can remove them if I want in less than 5 minutes.

I really like these. What brand are they? I really like the turn signal space.

Hardbags off of an old 70s model FL bagger, went through the "truck bed liner" treatment. Ghost brackets make them quick detach. While I do like them, I am considering going back to leater bags. Not sure yet..
