Any opinions? Is this too big? Will it be a bitch to counter the weight? ect...
We are also adding a shotgun shock to level out the ride...

Thanks,
I have some other Saddlemen luggage and have been happy with it. Also look at Nelson Rigg for some similar options at good prices too.

Thanks everyone for the info. I just placed an order for the Saddlemen S3200. I liked the look of the S3500 studded better because it matched the Heritage "studded" look, however the Wife likes that the S3200 opens and packs like a typically suitcase. Seeing that I really don't care how it looks, I guess if she likes it, then I like it.

thanks again,

I have the same bag. I put it on the pillion and use it as a back rest also. Then I strap a backpack onto the luggage rack on back. Works great for me.

I saw some out at the Harley shop a while back. If I were in the market, I'd get the bags that have the extendable handle and rollers. Those sure make it easier to get to a hotel room.

Got my Saddlemen S3200 today and I have to say I'm very pleased. This bag is a normal suitcase with a twist. It mounted on my Heritage within 10 minutes and now that I know how to secure it I imagine it will go on next time in a couple of minutes. If you're in need of a large bag this is certainly one to consider. Got my off e-bay for $175 with free shipping.
