Default Which Swingarm Bag To Get

What options are out there for a good swingarm bag? I saw the HD one was $179 at the dealership today and another guy with a Lo has a Leatherworks one that I like that's $158. Anything else out there?

Here are a couple of other options:
  1. Garage Leathers
  2. Fox Leather, and I believe
  3. Xian Leather will make custom bags
I have the Garage Leathers Bag and it is a great bag and has held up well for the last three years.

At least make sure to checkout Garage Leathers before you decide on one. I have one and love it.

Garage leathers always gets great reviews; one of the more expensive options but I'm told you get what you pay for. I roll a the leather works bag ($150) and have zero complaints.

Best bang for the buck is the Leatherworks bag. Personally I like the aesthetics of the Garage Leathers bag so I bought one from a fellow forum member that had onenup for sale. BTW, the sales forum is a good place to look because I see them for sale there frequently.

Garage leathers hands down. Hand made, real buckles (not the plastic phoney hidden ones), not mass produced. I get compliments everywhere I go.

There are a ton of threads on this subject.
