Make sure whomever you get detachable saddlebags from you indicate you have a detachable sissy bar and want to keep it. There mounting hardware is definitely different for Boss Bags!

I was checking out a ebay item and thought I needed the bars to keep the bags away from the wheel.

I use the Kuryaken throw over soft bags (http://www.cycleluggage.com/kuryakyn_80018.html). They don't require any support bar and I just take the seat off, throw them over the fender and put the seat back on. I wrap a couple of the accessory strap around the passenger pegs and go. They fit a laptop and a couple days clothes perfectly.

Check out Boss Bags. I have a pair of quick detach Boss Bags and a quick detach back rest and they can live together easily. Ready for the road and in a few minutes ready to strip it all off and cruise the city and be really cool.
Of course I'm really cool anyway.
