I do not care the swingarm bags, myself.
Besides, they do not make one big enough. Between laptop, 4 or 5 books, 4 note pads, and other assorted materials a backpack is about the only option.

Is That the Chrome version of the thunderstar?:
Chrome. 16" Front
Part No 43978-07
Also your spokes look alot wider than the picture from Harley.
I like the wheel and might get one but I want it to look more chrome if available

Try HERE
They have a mirror chrome and a textured chrome version as well as the one I have.
The spokes are definitely wider than the ones you are looking at.
The finish matches the finish on the stock solid rear wheel and it has black
in the openings which matches the rest of the bike.
It was a better choice for the look I want, and of course it doesn't hurt that it cost a good bit less than the chrome version

Hey Dixie. Yeah I paid 800 for it used, but it is in perfect condition
6" barrel and its also seriously accurate
To those that suggested I lower my Fat Boy, I gotta say no way!
That slammed look is definitely something you either like, or you dont like.
I dont like
Besides, I already drag my footboards all the time, and I am planning on putting extensions on them soon too. I cant allow all of the hard work Tom from Harleygoodies.com does getting his site out there go to waste now can I?
If I lower it I'll be digging furrows in the pavement when I turn.
Form is important right up till it interferes with function, then its unwelcome.
