Default Detachable Bags

I want to put the lockable rigid saddlebags on my 06 Deluxe, but want them detachable. What is the best way to go? I'm familiar with the Bare Backs, but am not sure if they'll work since these bags have supports that attach under the bags. Also, what's the point of having the lockable bags with those. I know of the Ghost and Easy brackets, but am not sure if there's enough room for the plate to mount on that bags. The bags flare in on the inside and there isnt much flat surface.
