It was add the bags or trade it in for a SG. I like my Lo, so the bags were the best option.

Most Softail bags are 2 small.
Agreed. I have the Softtail bags and STILL need to strap **** everywhere...lol

Yours actually look good and balance out the bike a little better IMHO.

Thanks! I have put a lot of thought into a vision of what the Lo was going to progress into. From start to finish (never finished) every part, piece, add on has been selected to keep a classic flow from front to rear.
The best part is that it can go back to a bare Lo rather quickly.

Yeah... both your bikes are pretty cool. And I went another direction completely and am pleased with the result, it just ended up not being a "practical" bike, though I can transform it into a similar configuration in no time. The Lo DNA is pretty adaptable.

yeah but not being practical doesn't take away from the other side like yours, Badass!

Go to Ronnies parts finder and look up the stock part number. If the dealer does not have it, they can order it for you.

Every one likes what they like.

Should a FB have Apes? Windshield? Bags? 2:1 pipes? It is up to the Rider to make it their own. We all have a choice as to what our visions are and what our rides look like and how they ride. This thread shows you all different kids of visions...

Bike looks great by the way!
Mine is the Deluxe kit from Harley, It looked a lot cleaner to me than some of the other options out there. When I installed it there weren't many black parts available so most of it has been powder coated, also bought the visor trim rings. I got a lot of money tied up in it but am very happy with the results.

Also used the harness Dan and Gommee told you about
