Default Best quick release saddlebag system?

I have some large synthetic leather saddlebags for softails (a HD product). A buddy gave them to me. I want to hook up some quick release system. Any ones work well? I have seen the Easy Brackets on the net and the dealer said they recommend Bare Backs. What works best?

Can't coment ont e Bare Bones, but the Easy Brackets are awesome...Take the bag and bracket off in about 20 seconds.

Iput on Easy Brackets, they are very nice going on and off. I have a big set of saddle bags so Ifabricated a little bracket and roller that stays clamped to the swing armto hold the bottom of the bag in place.

I just put the saddle bags that were made formy cross Bones on with the bare backs, they work great. I would say the bags are a medium size. I was looking at the easy brackets, but i didnt like the fact that I had to line up the bag and mark then drill for the brackets, only because with my luck I would screw it up, but then again I paid well over 500 bucks for the bags so I did have a fear factor going on with them.

I heard medium bags can go on easy brackets that dont require turn light relocation
