Those look like HD's and I think chrome or gloss black are the only options

Default Boss Bags

I bought a pair of Boss Bags for my Fat Boy a couple of years ago. They are great because they install and remove so quickly and don't need ugly brackets.

The Boss bags I'm looking at are the 42's which leave a bracket behind but are the largest ones that they make. I'm ok with the bracket because I never really take my bags off anyways.

The Lo is looking great! have any pics of the LePera? Also what rear fender is that? I have been looking for options for a rear fender on mine, and this is the cleanest set up I have seen so far!

I had heard that they do that on some people's caps.... But fortunately mine have been great. Thanks for the good reviews on the power vision. I'm getting it for sure! My wallet is hurting already.

What are the torque specs on the front and rear axel nuts.
I am running the Michelin Commander IIs. I only got 6000 on my first rear OEM Dunlop and 7000 on my second. I swapped both font and rear for the Commander IIs and after about 5-600 miles, I love them. they handle wonderfully and give great grip and performed great in the downpour I got stuck in.
If they come anywhere close to the insane 25,000 rear life that Michelin claims I will not buy any other brand.

Lol, if they last 25,000 miles, they will probably still be on my bike for the second owner. I hope they last that long. I really hate buying tires.

Since we got back on the topic of bags. Does anyone here have one of Leather Pros trunk bags.

I just orderd one of the TB3900 plain trunk bags to match my Leather Pros saddle bags. After doing a trip to Myrtle Beach bike week, two saddle bags just arent enough for me and the wife. I think this trunk bag will do just the trick to add a little extra storage to the Lo

Have you thought about these guys. http://www.coolsac.com/cool-sac-package-deluxe/
They make a pretty awesome sissy bar bag that would have a lot more room especially if you got the deluxe. I got just the large bag for 140.00 and it has a lot of room. The two bag package is less then half of what the leatherworks trunk bag is and if you aren't really going to use it all the time is a much better buy in my opinion. They also have a lifetime warranty.

Well, i really wanted a matching tour pack for my saddle bags. I already have access to a bag similar to that one should i need it. Plus the ease of attachment of the Leather Pros trunk bag was a seller for me.
