Just wondering if the leather wrapped saddlebags from a road king custom would fit on a street glide. Anyone try it? Thanks

You may need to adjust the brackets slightly, but as others said easy swap.

My reason for asking is i like the leather wrapped look better. My plastic saddlebags have taken a beating and after dumping the bike the other day, i need to replace the left bag. I found a new one for 350. But saw an image of the rkc bags on a sg and i am considering them.
