Default sportster hard bags

I ride for good periods of time so I'm thinking of investing in the hard saddle bags from G.H.D. My only problem is they only show one angle of the bags in there picture and it's the only picture out there, Ive been searching for a while. So if anyone knows or haves a picture of these installed on the sportster I would really like to check it out. I seen the hard bags on a dyna, there close to the same shape but I didn't like the way it looked, so I would hate to buy these and not like them. Thanks

I have the rigid leather covered-lockable bags on my 06 1200C,can fita fair amount of stuff in them,not sure if this is what you are looking for? More pics in my gallery. Also not sure if you have a windshield or are even going that route but HD now has a 2 pocket windshield bag-very useful.

I know there was a thread here somewhere about this same thing. I know Corbin makes hard bags but they are REAL expensive.

Not looking for hard leather, but the hard clolor matched bags. Thanks for the input. I'mgoing to check out your gallery, I like the look of those bags too.

I saw a pic of a Sporty with the MoCo's hard bags, color matched, in I think a 2005 Catalog, real sharp, the profile of the bags matched the fender perfectly.
