RE: Picked Her Up Last Night
Nice Bike! You know I have wondered the same thing about the Vance & Hines Big Radius on a Street Glide. They are really nice pipes but I think you might have clearance problems with the right saddle bag. My wife has those pipes on her Street Bob

RE: Picked Her Up Last Night
That is snow in the background. That was one cold ride, but I couldn't resist. It started as an around the block thing and when I finally got back I got a good chewing out from my wife who had become worried something bad had happened. There is a lot of gravel on the roads from the ice and I think that had her freaked out. I told her she could suit up and come with if she wantedto alleviate her worrying.
On the V&H pipes they are making them for baggers, and I saw an ad in a mag with a SG and Big Radius pipes. Looks pretty sharp. I just don't want to lose my radio for the pipes if they are that loud.
Anyone have any ideas on the fitment of saddlebag bras? I have worked on them for an hour and they fit very poorly. Puckered in places and the white velcro tabs show in the back or the front depending on how I adjust. I thought about building a nice warm fire and letting them warm up some. Maybe they will be more pliable and fit better. And if not I can chunk them in the fireplace and be done with it!

RE: Picked Her Up Last Night
Nice ride and welcome from NC.
I bought the bag covers as well. I got them out of the box and realized they were held in place by velcro. I was not real impressed and put them on my shelf down stairs. They are still there after a year. They will probably be a good fit if you get them on but I lost interest in them.
Ride safe and weld your wallet shut. These guys will have you spending money left and right.
