Default RK CUSTOM bags on STREETGLIDE

I like the RK CUSTOM bags a lot and keep wondering what they would look like on my bike. Anybody else contemplating this? Would be a cool look for a Streetglide![sm=escape.gif]

Bounty Hunter,

The RKC bags might not look bad on a Street Glide, but I don't think they'd work on yours because of your special Daytona graphics. No way to apply those graphics to the leather wrapped RKC bags. Just my opinion.

Bounty Hunter,

I think you bike looks great the way it is. I think you would lose something without the lines to go with the rest of your bike. Just my opinion.
I don't know why it wouldn't work though, I think the only real difference is in the fairing anyways.

I Think it would look good but if i was you i would take all the stickers off because it may look bad without them on the bags but just my opinion and it would definitly look different.

Not something I would do, but would love to see some pics with them installed on a SG.

There's a fellow on the CVO forum that has the Road King leather bags on his red cherry SEEG2 and it looks great. I don't know how they will look on yours with the stripes. After looking at your bike again, the RK bags would look great to give you a different look when wanted. The SEEG2 can be seen here

I'm sure they would look good. An SG is basically a RK Custom with hard bags and a fairing.
