Default Detachable saddlebags
Do anyone know if I can get detachable leather saddle bags for my 11 deluxe? Checked with Harley and was told that regular detachable bags won't fit the deluxe because of the lower height( compared to fatboy etc). Any one know any otherwise ?
Thanks!

Boss Bags or Hog Deluxe are two nice bags.

Yep. Agree with Wanabe. I used the easy brackets on my last bike along with ***** and Max Revolution Bags.
Good Luck!

Here's another set of subject brackets you may wish to explore:http://www.ghostbrackets.com/. Be sure to watch the comparative videos with Easy Brackets on their website.

I got edge brackets ( formerly ghost) and edge locking saddlebags 108L they are great. They are soft bags wrapped on a hard shell (like roadking) bags. They fit with stock pipes but are big 20 x 11.5x 7 like 1250 cu inches each side. They are shaped like heritage bags but without the studs. If you look at my profile you can see the pics of the bags on my 11 deluxe.

My 2010 Heritage with Springer style bags from HogDeluxe. It has the easy bracket so I can remove them and ride bagless.
