Default Breakout into bagger when needed-DONE

I had an old set of throw-over HD saddlebags from my sportster. Just cut the yoke off... and since the backing is a hard plastic, installed using EZBrackets.
Super impressed with their product. Install was ridiculously simple. They sit close to fender too. They're really sturdy too. Was looking into if I were to do HD's detachable....WOW...$$$$$ Works perfect with my detachable backrest too. Best $159.00 ever spent!
PS...yes I know they need to be cleaned...I actually ride mine...lol

Looks good. I have Easy Brackets on my bag and like them also. Once you put bags on you realize how handy they are to have.

Looks good. Say, what's the yoke, the center in between the two bags?

Looks good. Put some leather bags on mine too, and I know many people would say its a no-no, but I wont go without anymore. I have found that as much as I ride ( coming up on 10,000 miles in a week or two ) they are the way to go.

That works well with your ride, most of the time bags look crappy with the Breakout. How was the install? I am considering purchasing for my wife's Heritage to use with her stock bags.
