EDIT: All the baggage can be removed in about a minute, literally. The wife and I make a few long trips a year. Once we get to where we're going, I remove the bags and it's back to the sexy Breakout look.






To me, this is an ideal set up. I've been pondering selling my FLHT/FZ-09 and going a one bike route. I tour approx 14 days/year, 100% solo. Add cruise, heated grips and a detachable windshield. I'd take a clean used 2014-2016 to start things out. Perfect...

If you want cruise, you'll need at least a 2016 model. That's when Harley added electronic throttle to the softails. Just need a cruise control module and ECM recalibrate from the dealer. I have a cruise control module for sale if anyone is interested.

Hi UHDhog. Love the bag your set up. Can you give me the detail on the tour pack including the HD-QD. Also the saddle bags. 90% of the time I will not need them but 4 or 5 times a year I'll do 3 to 10 day trips.

Did you order the stand of brackets (what ever they're called) to to keep the bags out of the wheel? I'd like to get throw overs but not willing to ad those brackets.
Also there's a guy over in soft tail parts for sale with a nice set of bags off a Duce
