It depends...lol. A Mustang or like touring seat will run you about $400. That's not to say you can't find something else for less. A set of bags could run you $500 and up depending on what you want. You might be able to find some deals on eBay for used or other third party, but I would figure somewhere in that neighborhood for decent replacements.

Pull the bags off and run without them until you make your decision.

The HD Sundowner is available for under $400 *without studs*, and is a great touring seat (I've got one).

Without the bags, it's mostly the same as a Deluxe... :-)

i really don't understand that. do you think that a seat and saddle bags are what make a bike? it's just a seat and saddle bags...

i figure i can get good coin for the stock seat and saddle bags anyway, probably only have to pay out a few hundred. i've one done up in brown leather (no studs) and it looked awesome.
