Default Something is missing in this pic - axle covers

I am looking for axle covers to fit my 05 flstci. The HD's says they do not fit with saddlebags. I thought there was a post awhile back about an aftermarket axle cover that fit with the saddlebags, but I could not locate it. I would like to find black covers.

Thanks, I will email Mark at MandMcycle, and see if he can find out about the fit with saddlebags.
That cover looks nice. I think I will go with the black covers so it will blend in with the black swing arm/frame.

Looks to me that it would not interfere with the saddlebags. Doesn't seem to stick out that much. Thinking about getting one myself.

If you have a backrest docking kit it is likely that none of the axle covers would make contact with the saddle bags. I have the Arlen Ness covers, they are huge compared to most, but once I installed the docking hardware, no more problem.
