Default 2011 Fatboy Lo Bags?

My wife just got her first HD. It is a 2011 FB Lo White Hot Denim.

We are getting a quick detach windshield but are having trouble finding a good set of bags for this model.

Will the Harley Road King Leather Saddlebags fit it OK? The ones I found were for the 97-08 Road king.

She likes the clean look without the straps, but I have read about gaps, etc.

Any suggestions?

Prefer rigid, and probably locking in some fashion. Leather covered I think looks best, but that will be her choice as well.

Thanx for the welcome to the forums.

Zeddock

Not many will clear the stock exhaust.

+1 on the stock exhaust. If you're keeping the stock pipes that will limit you quite a bit. Especially if you are looking for much capacity. I'd stick to new ones from HD or maybe Boss bags or Leather Pros if you have the budget.

If you keep your stock exhaust, these bags will fit without moving your turn signals. They are our 3200 series.


If you lower your pipes, you can use our 4000 series bags and still not have to move the sigs (even though they are moved in the photo below).

For the roadking bags you would have to move the blinkers next to the tail light and the ones I have seen need a support rack mounted on the bike as well. I was looking into this but didn't want to make the changes.

We are mainly a dealer oriented business and we have an agreement with our dealers not to sell to anyone in their area and not to sell for prices less than what is listed on our website, however, we can offer free shipping to forum members (usually up to $35 for a set of bags). I know its not as much as others, but our dealers are our bread and butter and we don't want to get in trouble with them.
