Default Quick detachable saddlebags

Wondering if anyone here has quick detachable saddlebags for a Heritage Classic. If so, be so kind as to point me to where I could pick them up. Also, do I use my existing bags?

yes, yes, and yes..........Easybrackets.com I installed them on my 97 FTSTC and they are awesome. The best add-on I've ever put on. They look great on and off. I would suggest you call them direct and ask them any questions as I had done. They were very helpful. Good luck and the last i checked it took a total of 12 seconds to take on and off once installed !!!

If you're looking for bags, check out this link. Boss Bags

Then click the short movie showing how fast they detach.

I have the stock bags already. I'm just looking to keep these stock bags and make it to where they are detachable. Like mitcht said "Took a total of 12 seconds to take on and off..." Will call EasyBrackets tomorrow. I also have the quick detachable sissy bar and EasyBrackets has a fix for that too! Thanks for the input!

By the looks on the site, they aren't lockable. I'm wondering if there are any quick-release latches that have a locking system within the bag to (somewhat) deter the quick lift and run punks.

I just got the easy bracket setup for the new bags on my Deluxe. They do have a locking system on them.

Try this, a buddy of mine has this and it looks and works great. Kind of pricey though.
