im more of a fan of the hard bags then the leather ones. i had a set of leather bags that were almost like throw over ones. they had no form to them and were small enuf that i didn't notice them sticking out and just hung there. too bad i sold them to my uncle, i should see if i can get those back or someone to make me another set

BB Reproductions all the way. Water tight, enough room for a half helmet. Great customer service.

We had the BB repro bags on my wife's deluxe for a while. Do you have any problems with the lids coming off? She had a terrible time with hers, and eventually gave up on them and got a set of Leatherlykes.

The BB Repro bags also leave some fugly brackets behind when you remove the bags.

No trouble with the BBs, or the lids coming off. 'Been almost four years with them on.

I got some FLH hard bags for my Deluxe. Just trying to find a painter to get them painted. Just need some bags for when I go out riding for a weekend. Otherwise I don't want or need bags.

Osprey bags for me. These can be on or off in a couple of minutes. The look and price is great. I don't use bags very often but when I do I can still keep the look I like.

Sumax makes hard bags for the softail as does Cavalry if you decide to go that route.
