In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion,[3] often for their own amusement.

No problem. I've got a question myself for everyone. New 2016 Breakout owner as of Monday. It's has been awhile since I was on two wheels but decided it was time for another bike. Went for a cruiser this time and not the sports bikes of my younger days (SV650, GXR750) This bike is killing it, in both style and comfort.
I've purchased it new with a V&H Stage 1 which sounds amazing and am working on my mod list. I've been lurking this forum for a bit getting some great ideas and sound information. I've already followed some advice and covered the bottom of my pillion in felt so I could remove the "awfully installed" rear fender protector since I ride solo unless the wife wants to join, and then I'll throw the pillion and detachable back rest on.
I am looking at the swing arm saddlebags and there are quite a lot of options. Not sure I can justify the extra $$ just for the HD branded bag (unless it's actually better quality). I am looking at Leatherworks and Viking bags at the moment. Any recommendations/advice on a swing arm saddlebag?
Thanks

Like cdonis I have used Mobile-1 and Redline. That's pretty much all I use. I also use a K&P Engineering billet reusable oil filter on all my bikes.

I've got this same one. Found it on eBay for $81 shipped. It's good leather, has 2 flaps (inner flap has a storage pocket for papers), standard buckles on the outside with QD buckles underneath, clear vinyl to protect the paint from the straps, quality straps/buckles to attach to swingarm, AND made in America...what's not to like?
Just look for "All American Rider Black Swingarm Storage Bag for Harley Softails"
I removed the logo from mine and had a few patches sewn on to cover up the rivet holes (not the best picture, but it's dark and cramped in the garage):
