Leatherworks by far is my vote and favorite. I have owned many of their saddlebags etc over the years. When i just picked up my used night train, i needed something so i went to their factory and ordered the tool bag and the solo swing arm bag. They have different sizes, i did the bigger one. I am glad i went there though, i almost bought the brown one, but the leather is much softer, the black one is solid. Buy and you will be happy it is quality, its made in the USA and they stand behind their work, Much nicer then the cheap HD crap

I have a Larosa swing arm bag that came with my bike and a Leatherworks tool bag that I bought. The quality of the Leatherworks bag is definitely better than the Larosa IMO.

I bought one from a company when I first got my BO but I don't remember who it was. Either way, it was smaller than the HD version, so I got the HD one again. I sort of wish it had more area inside.

If money is no object get the Garage Leathers bag. If you want something a little cheaper then get the Leatherworks bag. Stay away from that shitty HD bag. The leather is thin and it will sag in time.... they are garbage.

I looked for weeks and ended up with the licks cycles bag. Great quality, straps are great and it's a decent size to fit enough stuff but still look good.

Same here. I wanted one right away and they had it on the bike before I got through with the sales paperwork.
It's held up very well - glad I bought it...

Thanks for all the suggestions. Leatherworks looks nice but not a fan of the 2 buckles and those round button things. Want something more plain. Think I might get the willie and max bag that da-rza showed. The all black no flash is what I looking for. Thanks again
