I got them from another member in the forum classifieds...they're apparently H-D accessory bags that have been discontinued. They mount the same as the stock bags, have a rigid plastic back with shock cut-outs, and a metal frame around the inside top to retain the shape. The only thing I don't like is the lack of quick-release buckles...guess I'm kinda spoiled being able to open the bags quickly to throw something in.

I'll try to get some more detailed pics of the bags (interior, etc.) when I get home.

Even though she's up for sale I couldn't resist adding the fender light. It was hard to drill a hole in the fender but I think it was worth it.

Hey, Razorback - I think the fender light looks great, I just don't have the nuts to drill into my fender. Was it a big project to undertake?

I'm not into studs but I really like those bags.

Piece of cake actually. Light is for the Heritage Springer. 2 holes. I used a speed square on each side of the fender to find center. The bulb keepd you from just holding it in place. You will need 3 holes. 2 screws and one for the bulb socket. Around $50 from the dealer.

kwb, What license plate bracket are you using to mount your plate down low? Did you buy it, or fab it up?

Default Chrome Bag Trim

Added some new bag trim today, let me know what you think. I Like the the way it goes with the side speed wing trim on the stock bags.
