I just picked up bags for my Deluxe. I went with Viking Bags hardshell leather wrapped bags. I didn't want to spend $150.00 for Harley's quick detach system and then another 70 for the quick detach locks so I made my own setup for about $25.00. http://www.vikingbags.com/harley-sof...10295-prd1.htm
Your saddlebgs look great!
We also offer our own version of a quick disconnect system.
I've got a set of hard leather Harley bags off someone here and then I bought the cycle vision bareback mounts. They do what they are suppose to and its clean. The only thing is if your bags don't lock then anyone can open the bag and take the whole bag off! Honestly I take the bags off and put the bags on via the hardware that came with the bags and I don't even use the bare backs. So they are for sale if you want them lol
Have Leather Pros and love them. The bag locks and and additional small padlock can be applied in each bag to prevent one of the latches from releasing thus making it much more difficult to steal.
