Bought 07 RKC....what to do now?
Well, I finally bought myself a HD RKC, black. Picked up a police solo set on ebay for it cheap, will keep the stock RKC seat too. What do we all think about the leather covered hard bags compared to the standard bags on a Street Glide?

RE: Bought 07 RKC....what to do now?
I have a rk custom, different than the rkc, but still not the hard bags. I was really thinking of buying a set of hard bags, but after living with my bags a year, I have decided to wait. Once my bags are trashed, I will opt for a set of hard bags, but for now, there is more that I would like to do with my money. Also, if you are considering going with a hard bag, look into those stretched bags. Painted bags look very nice on a bike, especially with a custom paint job. But, you just got your ride, spend your money on things that will help your ride. Something like a fuel management system, pipes, and such. JMHO
And, WELCOME to the forum.

I'm assuming you bought a RK Classic for one of two reasons; a) you like the old school look, b) you got a deal on it and now want to change the look.
Personally, I like both bags but if you want to keep the old school look, IMHO you need to stay with leather. I've seen a few pictures of classics with hard bags on the forum and they look great (its hard to turn those beauties into anything else) but the leather bags complete thenostalgic package with the white wall tires, etc.
