Little more help...

Ok just bought a set of hard bags for the 07 RK. I have the stock custom bags on there now and will be selling them soon. What other hard ware is needed to mount the hard bags on? I would just go up to the dealer but being in Iraq right now really dont have that choice. My bike is yellow pearl and im have all the work done while im here so I can come home to a finished bike and just be able to ride....
Color ideas on the bags....All black? All yellow pearl? Yellow pearl bags with balck lids? or a combo of black with yellow???
I have a set of black mags from a street glide that are going on next week...Just looking for some thing alil different with out making it look like a bumble bee...Thanks guys! Fourm been a lot of help to this new harley rider...

You should only have to adjust the bracket a tad, no other hardware needed. I'd go with yellow to match the rest of the bike, IMO.

Just like RD said- a slight adjustment to the "L" brackets that the bags mount to. No other parts needed. I did the same thing on my '04 FLHRS a couple of years ago.

You'll need the hinges, handle assembly, locks keyed to match your ignition, the inside teather check strap with appropriate attaching screws, the bail studs with washers, the bumper thing-a-ma-bobs....all assuming that you are getting totally blank bottoms and totally blank lids.
