Talking Hard baggage???

Hello everyone. Wondering if there is a delete kit or something to remove the rear hard bags and components on a electra glide classic? Maybe for a temporary different look or just because they don't "need" them? Maybe a custom look? I'm just looking for ideas and honestly bored today lol. Pictures would be great, thanks everyone. Have a beautiful Sunday.

Have you taken the bags off and stepped back to see what a touring bike looks like without them?

The fender struts are not very pretty. Someone here had an extensively modified Road King that still had the stock struts, IMO and only IMO it’s just not a great look. The frame, side covers, rails, everything is designed to work with the bags. Plus the shocks look weird...again this is just my opinion and you may think I am completely nuts and that’s ok, keeps it all interesting.
