Looks great, but it just makes me want extended bags even more.

Over on the Road glide Forum there are some members that reccommend Fairing factory, they are ABS Bags and Lids and can be found on E Bay painted for $ 999.00 shipped

IMO the best looking bags out there are the 1-3 extended bags by Top Shop Carbon at

I really like the down sept lines of their bags and the prices are competitive

This thread got me looking again for extended bags

Top Shop Carbon is having a sale on their bags right now for $750

I am really close to ordering the 1-3" extended that they make

All of my blemishes were on the side facing into the bike, you can't even tell from the outside. The blemishes were from bubble wrapping the bags before the clear coat cured so there's a ghosted impression. I haven't tried yet, but I'm thinking some good scratch remover and wax will fade them to almost unnoticeable. They were an amazing deal (I think), $499 shipped, with gray fitted fabric liners. The liners are pretty thick, almost too thick, but they will definitely cushion anything I put in there.

I'm planning on doing a new paint job over the winter so I wasn't too worried about the blemishes and I figured the black would match until I do paint it, but I don't think you could find the blemishes just looking at them without really inspecting the bags. They are fiberglass, so they're a little heavier than the OEM's but they are very sturdy feeling. I just used my current lids and hardware.

Anyway, I thought I would share since I hadn't seen much about Bagger Werx when I did a search before buying these. So far I am very happy with them.

Here's how they look:

Here's link to their eBay auction in case anybody else is interested:

And a link to their site, they have some good prices for unfinished bags too:

WOW, thats a GREAT price for stretched bags painted with liners. You cant beat that deal!!Wish I saw these before I stretch my factory bags. Hows the quality and fit(lids and hardware and rubbers?)

Nice set of bags. I've been struggling with the same decision for 2 years and finally ready to make the conversion over the winter time. I plan to go with an extened fender too. Just can't seem to make up my mind on where to buy the bags. Companies popping up everywhere and doesn't help to hear some of the horror stories about the poor quality.

In all my months of research, Top Shop Carbon and Milwaukee Bagger keep coming up as quality bags. So, I called TSC and they offer a discount to HDForum Members. I have to see if MB offers the same discount since they're right across the border.
