Thanks for all your help guys.. Next payday I will definitely get some stuff ordered. I use my bike a bunch for commuting and need the bags, but I sure do love the look without them. Now I will be able to come home from work, click off the bags, sissy bar, and windshield and be at bike night in time to get a good spot!!

The barebacks are a nice option.They are very easy to use and only leave a couple small nubs on the struts when removed. They don't look bad by any means. My only gripe is that they are not lockable making it pretty easy for a low class thief to walk away with your bags if given the chance.

I will be using HD quick detach hardware for the backrest along with Barebacks for the bags.

As far as locking, I have been looking into a locking **** for the bolt where the bottom support bracket mounts, similar to those used for radar detector mounts and that type of electronic. I just need to see if there is enough clearance to use them. Found a few companies but I can't remember the names at the moment. Thule also uses them on their bike and ski racks.

To answer the question above, yes that is how the bike will look with everything off.
