Default Swing arm bag.

Anyone use one? Are they worth having?

They are great. Like Chaz said, you can carry some extra stuff in them. They are very handy. Just don't waste your money on a LaRosa brand. That's what I have. They are cheap made and don't hold their shape. And the dye comes out of them real fast. Just a piece of $hit bag. Spend the extra money and get a good quality bag and you won't regret it, like I am.
Leather Works and Garage Leather make some really nice quality bags.

Chop On,
Robert

I love mine, it makes the bike look good and gives me space to take things along without being overly bulky or unsightly. I have a Garage Leathers Solo Bag.

Love mine. I also have a thin drybag in it so when needed I can put some extra stuff on my back on my way home from some unplanned shopping.

I have the Lick's swing arm bag, and it does come in very handy.

Would this interfere with passenger pegs & passenger on a fatboy. Just wondering if I would have to remove it when the wife comes along.

Swingarm bag will NOT interfere with passenger pegs unless you mount it like I did to the rear passenger peg footpeg hole with a custom bracket.
