Default Removing bags

Just brought home my 08 Street Glide, considering removing the bags,
not permanently, and need a good-looking fix for the void they leave.
Anyone know of, or have links to, options available for
this bike??

The bags is what makes the bike look complete, but I guess to each it's own....

Seen alternatives from several manufacturers. They pretty much all suck.[:'(]

If you dont like the bags you may have bought the wrong scooter.[:-]

I think after you look around at all the custom options for baggers you'll laugh at yourself for ever even thinking of something so foolish as removing the bags.

Still looking at the options though...there was one ad in a magazine I read which looked promising, but I cant find the ad now...the searches I/m trying are bringing up short term bag removal...

I agree. He could have saved some coin, too.

Interesting concept. No bags, but hard fillers.
