Default Saddlebag Quick Disconnect??

Just purchased a Fatty and purchased a set of used HD Leather Covered Hard bags for her....my question is do ANYONE make some sort of 'quick disconnect system' for bags like this? If I am saying it correctly??

Looking for some sort of way to do a quick disconnect system or locking system or both on the bags....pics are always welcome or/and links on the web....much appreciate any help you can give....
Thanks,
William

I have the HD quick disconnect for my Heritage, not sure if it would be the same set up for the bags you have but would be suprised if they wouldn't work. I don't have the part number handy though sorry!

Kind of pricey but an option for you. I got half a set with a used set of bags and they're hooking me up with the rest to mount on my bike. My dealer guy thinks they are the best out there.

The "Easy Brakets" system. easy install. Model specific, so buy the correct one. Can't remember what I paid. And they leave little hardware whrn you ride bagless.

It depends on the bags you bought. Are they meant for a softail? If so you can get easy brackets, ghost brackets, barebacks, etc? I like the barebacks best as there is really nothing to them like the other brackets.
