Road King Custom owners...?

What kind of windshield mounted bag have you found that works well with the stock headlight nacelle? I'm looking...no findy.

I don't see how the stock nacelle would have any effect on what bag you use. The bags mount to the center horizontal bar on the windshield. I just looked at five different ones on the HD site and they say they fit the RK Custom.

That's the same thing my dealer said as he was arrogantly trying to install one. He said "any of them will fit"...no joy, however. All of them were to deep to clear the nacelle. The Customs have the "tricerotops" wing over the headlight.

if you're looking for a windshield bag, then may i suggest removing the chrome flyscreen and replacing the handlebar cover with the stock road king cover. you'll need a new spear as well. its easy to do, not too expensive (covers can be found on ebay, spear is about $25), and i found it to be a better ride without the windshield. the chrome screen deflects air right into your face!
