What good is a bagger without bags? Mine always have something in them.

"I bought a bagger, but removed the bags."

LOL

1998 Kawi Vulcan 1500D "Hooligan" cruiser (no bags)
2000 Road King - my first HD and first Bagger.
2005 Kawi Vulcan 2000 Street Rod dragster (no bags)
2007 Street Glide - lessons learned.

After that series of lessons I'll never be without a bagger again. And I certainly won't be taking off my saddle bags just for looks. I appreciate their convenience way too much. The Tour Pak is a different story though.

If I didn't want bags, I wouldn't have bought a "Bagger"

OK, That's funny! I don't care who you are. Why in the world would I possibly want to take the bags off my bagger? It's like ownin' a gun, but never havin' any bullets, or a bow with no arrows, or a shower with no water I think you know what I'm sayin' here right? Just doesn't make sense, and besides that, it looks like CRAP!!

I would say it would look better after Dark At least you couldn't say you were a bagger anymore

I saw a bagless story in Baggers magazine and i was thinking that the Briusers kit would be a good wat to dress up the rear end even if you had the bags on with all of the shock and bolt covers they make.
