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?
Boy in looking at that picture I guess its time to get some new pictures... now that I've added chrome and a new seat and the rest..
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.
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.
Mine is the quick detach,a bud got it on his used 1200C & hates them so he gave it to me
Bike was ready for Thunder in the Valley trip.Unfortunately I got called into work instead
30 seconds on or off & it's cut for the fog lamps he won't give me[:'(]
