Old vs New saddlebags
#12
I know you said you thought the touring bags looked too big for your Fatboy, but I've seen a couple of photos of guys that have taken Fatboys, and/or Heritages, and added the touring bags, and they look pretty good. You might even consider the Road King Classic bags. Again, lots of storage. I know there are some ABS bags made for softies, and I'll check for a website for ya.... Good Luck

Old bags are smaller overall, mount to brackets bolted onto your fender stuts and have a finger lock on the rear. As for carrying capacity newer style will hold more but seems like a coat and chaps will fill both up. As for losing a lid, the front latch has a hole in both top and bottom, simply thread a piece of leather through and tie off, never lost a lid in 20+ yrs. The rear key latch just needs periodic adjustment, just like the Shovel Head that they are mounted on.
