Will the leather roadking bags work?

or what other options are there for detachable bags or something else that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

 

well i just made some FLH bags work on my dyna, do not see why you could not do the same on your heritage

 

"Those stock bags Are NOT going back on my bike!!!! "
with all due respect, you think a back pack looks cool? I'd rather use nothing before I'd strap a back pack on whether on the bike or not..
Just sayin..

 

why not just pull out the studs? on my dads i put in bag supports so they did not look old and flimsy... came out great!

 

Thats ok that you don't like them, everyone has different tastes, but the bikes were intended to be as the name says " HERITAGE " ( Everything from the thirty's forty's and fifty's ) which personally is what made me buy mine. I'm not changing anything. The studs may not suit you , but they were big in those years , along with light visors, and wide whitewall tires. ( Don't want the whitewall tires though ) The Fat Boy is probably what you are looking for. Thats what is great about Harley, they try to make something for everyone.

 

yep you can repair them bags, I think the link is saggybags.com
It will stiffin up the bags, the studs, well you can paint them, or remove them.

 

Get a baggertail from cycle visions and mount up some hard bags.

 

Hey, U not liking the studs is OK with me, even my son dislikes them on mine.

Being born in the 40's they just bring back a lot of memories and that's part of the reason I love the Heritage...

Go to Ur local auto upholstery and see what U can do to make U happy..
He can remove athem and should be able to do some work to make U happy.
Think it would be a lot less $$$$ than buying another set of GOOD quality leather bags..

The saggy part can be an issue if U don't do anything to them. I fill mine full of pillows and blankets in the winter at storage time and sagging is not a problem so far on my 07.
When they do, there are several kits to bring them back to org. Got saggy bags seems to be top notch. Though I am thinking of fabricating my own out of plastic. I still have all my sheet metal tools and it wouldn't really take long.

some thumbnails in case U wanted to see more of them..

 

May be the way to go thanks..

 

Thanks for the info
