Sweet! I am also looking for larger Deluxe bags.. I don't care for the stock ones; one keeps coming open on the ride, & the other is difficult to get open!
I have Custom Classic Saddlebags with EZBrackets. I had the HD Deluxe bags when I first got the bike, but after one long weekend ride, needed something bigger. Plus, I think the new ones look better!

Downside is the price conversion to Cdn $ !!
The conversion does suck, that's for sure, but before you get rid of your Deluxe bags because they come open, there is a service bulletin to correct the bags. I had mine fixed by the dealer and they open & close, and lock better than they ever did. Ask your dealer for this:

I think the OEM bags for the Deluxe are well suited to the appearance of the bike. Yes there have been many times I could have used a larger bag. However I bought a T-Bag's Stow-away bag. It can attach to the back rest and is very small when not in use, but holds lots of smitt when your travelling. http://www.tbags.com/detail.aspx?ID=...;SelectedCat=3
