Default Slim help? Bags? Ideas?

Moving along with the mods, time for bags? Still undecided,
Thinking hard FLD bags? Heritage bags? Too wide?
Boss bags 321T, nice option but a little high price wise? Leatherworks? BB reproductions? Thinking something not to wide? Mounting options maybe custom, but not an issue. And yes I have scoured the forum pics.
Pics would be great? Side and back? Thanks in advance.

Default Leather bags for sure

I like the vintage look with your fantastic paint job, and I think BB or other hard bags would take away from your "vintage" look where leather bags go more with the "theme"of your bike.

I bought these for a project that never happened, and I'll sell them cheap, they are new, only removed from the box for photos.

These are 19"X14"X5" wide, so not as wide as Heritage bags.

If you like shoot me a PM, I'm thinking $300.00 or so?

Default I like the narrow look

Found a shot from behind, this angle is hard to find. The red trim would go with the red H/D lettering on your tank.
