Default Softail Chrome Toolbox?

Does anyone use these?

What do you think? I like the idea of a little extra storage and was thinking about both sides.

Also Do they, can they,lock with bike key? They seem to have cylinder locks?

Any pictures, especially on a Softail Custom would be appreciated.

Mike

Thanks 06Duece

Any chance of a close up on either side. Also How do they mount? Can they go off and on or are they on.

I like the idea of more lockable storage, but I also like the current clean look of the oil tank.I also like more chrome.

Did you have to buy a foot peg extender?

They come in pretty handy for what they're made for "tools". It holds my complete tool kit. I bought the HDcanvas bagthat is contoured to fit inside perfectly.....It helps keep tools from rattling around inside.[/align]

I have one on both sides. Don't carry tools.

Left side, Spare Sunglasses, night glasses. Spare Mp3. Plus all the license, registration, insurance crap.

Right side. Torch. Spare cell phone and $100 euros.

I think they're awesome, at least you can lock it.


Here's a pic on a '07 Fatty.
