You should sue the cycle visions bagger tail to install hard bags if you want them mounted properly. Some people use the QD brackets, but they really do not hold the bags well if you actually plan on putting stuff in them. I would get white bags and have a portion of them painted black.

I'm actually waiting on the painter for my bags. I got some stretched hardbags recently and got the cycle vision baggertail. Though I haven't put it on yet it looks like its built really well and shouldn't take much to put it on.

As far as paint, I'm going with solid charcoal satin brite, the same color as the gray on the bike. Figure If I ever want to throw some of the red on there shouldnt be too hard. Keep an eye on ebay, everything you need is there and can get it for a good price if your not in a hurry. Took me about 5 months to get everything but am doing it for under 450 + paint.

I can get you Bad Dad stuff too! Usually it takes a bit to get their stuff as a word of caution, but it is really nice.
