Default RE: Bags

OK I might of exaturated a little bit...... I rounded up. Maybe it was less than $ 30k. Remember here is Cali. everything cost more. Plus everything that I have is HD and installed by the dealer..... Lets see.....

$ 21k OTD for Fatboy
$ 1k - sissy bar, Windshiled, Turn signal Relocation (installed)
$ 1k - Vance & Hines Pipes & SE Air Intake Harley Download(installed)
$ 1k - HD Bags with Barebacks (installed)
$ 3.5k - Wheels, Rotors, Pulley and axle covers (installed)
$ 1k - SERT & Dyno (to be done in 2 days)
$ .5k - Luggage Rack, Rear Passenger Foot Pegs, Lay down Plate, Windshield Bag (installed)

I am right about $ 29K...... So yes I exaturated a little.

Before everyone jumps on me and tells me they could of got it cheaper ...... I know. I dont like to shop around. I have the money but not the time. I want all HD stuff on my bike.

I love my bike and happy with everything that I have done to it.

I rounded a few numbers up by a hundred bucks to make it easy.

Since you've got a lot invested in your ride and are justifiable proud - why not get a set of hand-made, custom bags from www.heathersleathers.com The owner, Wayne, will work with your design needs to create exactly what youwant. Go with a different color maybe - or perhaps a designthat just you have.He does outstanding, quality work. I'm using the "Ghost" brackets to mount them to my softail Springer Classic.

I've got the Harley factory bags specifically for the Softail. They fit great and look pretty good. You can get quick detach brakets to take them on and off eaisly bu to be honest, like you I always want to bring something with me, jacket, chaps, long sleeve shirt, stuff I bought, you name it, so I end up just leaving them on.
