They look great and appear to be bigger than the HD bags on my Deluxe.Was installation/mounting difficult?

Thanks CaptainMorgan, that was the info I was looking for as I don't want to imped the ability to properly corner and good to know that the 5" will work.

What is your opinion?
Once the bike is off the bench....rocker arm bag is next on the list. 2 much $hit going on it atm. Will custom order one w/ no weave and round buckles to match the bike. Still contiplating a seat design (C&C or Lepera) and get Hog Deluxe to match....may take some extra mats from seat maker to send to them. Still pondering ideas atm.

I too purchased HogDeluxe bags for my Heritage and am very happy with them. I am having one issue, the rear axle nut must have rubbed the inside of the bag and damaged the edging. I will get with HogDeluxe and see if they can repair them. I would check the clearance. I know with the quick release system the are loose and the will have movement without the bags having any contents. But overall I love the style and size of the bags.
