Default Heritage Fork Bag

I'm looking for a good fork bag. A friend of mine has one for their Rocker C that has a mounting plate that secures the bag and gives it rigidity which is a major complaint for most tool bags: can't get it secure enough with just the straps. She said she got it from Harley but they don't make them for heritage. Anybody know of any...

Viking Bags has a few interesting options that may or may not help.
Check out the strap configuration in the pdf install instructions.

These bags are very ridged and hold there shape well IMO.
I don't know if a mounting plate is needed with these bags, what do you think?

Hey guys I'm with VB heres a picture of the back end so you can take a look at how these tool bags will mount and how the strap configuration will be like.

I put a Fox Creek 12" forkbag on my Heritage for a road trip to the grand canyon and ended up with a dented front fender from contact with the bag. I didn't realize how much suspension travel took place on the front end of my bike.


Here's a link to the bag.

I ran a fork bag for a short time. It scratched up my fender. Took that sucker off and got a windshield bag.
