Part of me wanted to keep it a secret but when I found them I was in shock.

Drum roll...

Oldy's Custom

I actually found them on eBay.

I was thinking Oldy's was where you found them. When I was talking to them back in June and July when I ordered my rear fender from them, they mentioned that they were in work on some saddlebag extentions for the bags on the Switchback, might have mentioned something about complete stretched bags also. They told me they needed a bike to test fit them on and I put it out there (on the forum) to see if anyone was local and willing to help them. https://www.hdforums.com/forum/dyna-...-falls-sd.html I wasn't real detailed in this thread, might have been more helpfull if I was, oh well. I noticed in the listing, the pictures show the bags extended, however the extention does not look like it is useable for storage, might be a good place to fab up a secret hidding spot!!!!

The more I look at the Switchback,
the more I like it !!

I understand they've fixed (or there are fixes)
for the vibe issues the 1st ones had.

And now they make a Thunderheader (slip-on)
for it.
