Got some used Harley stock bags from a member here. Think they were from a Springer originally? They bolted right on with no issues. They are pretty close to the upper stock muffler, but no heat issues so far. Plus I plan to get V&H pipes as soon as I can afford them

Crappy phone pic, but ya get the idea.

I have V&H big shots...lots of room for bags. I love the look of the Heritage bags...any idea if they will fit?

There are some nice aftermarket saddlebags.
I would recommend Iron Bags.
