Default Swingarm Bag

Just had a quick question regarding a swingarm bag on a Deluxe. I am currently running the Heritage Springer Bag guards and I am wondering if a swing arm bag would fit with those on there? I do not have true duals, so I would think there is enough room. Thanks.

I guess it would depend on the dimensions and shape of the swingarm bag you are looking at...

Just the thinner HD bag or something like it. 3" Thick or so.

It looks like you shouldn't have any trouble putting a swing arm bag on. Consider Garage Leathers. Robert makes an awesome bag. I have put 10k on mine and it looks great. Mine is brown, but my brother has black and it's just as nice. He uses super thick leather so it holds shape nicely.

I think he wants both on at the same time

Yep Kozy, I think you are right. After actually looking at the bike tonight doesn't look like it will work. Thanks again.
