I'm on my phone so I can't upload any pics so here is a link to my set up.
https://www.hdforums.com/forum/softa...-on-my-lo.html. I have barebacks from cycle vision with leather covered hard bags from Harley. Only thing I don't like is the space between the the bag and fender.

That is the same bag I bought and while I don't want them to rub or touch anything....I do see what you mean by them being out a little far......I am thinking so far that I like the Easy Brackets....Anyone have this set up and willing to post up some good detailed pictures of them installed...like from over top the bag and from behind? I would really appreciate it very very much. Thanks in advance if someone can do this....

I don't want different bags....I want to keep these bags....but being that ez-brackets are made for HD's what system do you guys use with either these factory HD brakets that are on these bags OR do you remove these brackets some how and fill holes with grommets and install new EZ-Brakets?

Barebacks will work with them.
