Default T-Bag

I'm in the market for a windshield bag for my 2008 Road King Classic. I've seen the "T-Bag Windshield Bag for Road Kings" advertised all over but have never actually seen one.

Do any of you have one and if so what do you think of it? Also, I have Heritage bars on my bike, would the bag fit with those bars?

Thanks for your help!

Please explain this comment.I have an 08 RK with this bag and it is great. I do not have heritage bars though. Works well for me. I also placed a power receptacle in there that also works great. I'll post pics tonight.

Thanks for the response. Regarding the other comment - I'm clueless. No idea what he's talking about.

NOTE: T-Bag & tbag are spelled different & have separate meanings. I'm guessing anyone who references the "non-hyphen" version has been a recipient...

I believe the OP was referring to this:

I have that exact T-Bag and it doesn't quite fit on my RKC with 16 Apes, but it says as much in the instructions. I fit it anyway and it works but it's hard to zip up so unless it's raining I use the Velcro to close it without the zipper.

It is a fantastic bag; I keep my tablet, cell phone, wallet, battery tender and a few other things in there. I don't know how it would hold up in a torrential rain but as it is tucked behind the wind shield I expect it would be OK in reasonable weather.

I probably should look again but the zippers come from the left and right and when they're together I believe they don't have a lock or a little hole for a small lock.

I'd buy it again - it's very handy.

What I haven't seen yet is how the bag actually attaches to either the windshield or bars. How does it work?

If memory serves me correct it uses velcro and windshield bolts.out is very secure.I to do not zip it up but use the velcro. You will not be disappointed with the bag. I would though measure the bag against the width of your bars. FT
