I have a HD quick detach and for me it's imperative for long highway trips, and in cold weather. I pull it off when it's warm, though. Only problem now is I am doing the passing lamp kit and the windshield wont fit with the extra lights on each side of the headlamp.

HEY STARGAZER - - - WHAT KIND OF BAGS ARE ON YOUR BIKE?

Binny and TestFlyer, I got em from HD. The invoice calls them "Pony Bags". THey zip on and off. HOWEVER If I had it to do over again, I'd have gotten something different. I'm going to have to check into some kind of inserts to make them keep their shape better.

BTW Paid like $289 for them from the dealer.

Reading all of these is making me wish I could afford that quick detach shield, Ive got a slipstreamer. Does come off in 5 to 10 minutes but leaves the ugly brackets behind, but it was only 140 new.

Jagator....Your bike looks sweet. Nice color...The windshield looks good too. I might have to pick one up for the longer rides..

I use the HD detachable, and have had no wind issues.
