Its the 312XL. It's a Leatherworks bag. Home of the Nickel Bag. I got the 5" so i could fit more stuff in there.

The seat is HD P# 52004-025. Perfect fit. Warning....the leather on this seat makes the chunky vinyl crossbones pillion look really outta place.

The reflectors are next to go. I blew out a hairdryer removing car emblems the past so I've been told to go rent a heat gun.

I agree on the plastic cover under the seat. White Guy has by far the best solution.

The side bag I got was from : http://www.sideroadcycles.com/index.html

WD40 dissolves the glue on the double stick tape that holds the reflectors on. It won't harm paint.

Very nice looking bike. I ditched the reflectors the day I picked up the bike. Petrol gets the stickiness off, just make sure you give it a good polish afterwards. I need to start looking at some Derby Covers, etc too.
Seat really suits it.

I used a tip I saw on here or maybe another forum to remove the reflectors. Take a piece of dental floss and slide it under the reflector and it will come off with ease, next use some goo-gone and remove the remaining tape. Worked like a charm.

Good lookin Bones. Dental floss and goo gone will take those reflectors right off. I like the Derby cover and your blacked out covers. Nice looking bike. How do you like the swingarm bag? I just ordered one for the right and left for my Bones. Cant wait to get them
