Quote "Thanks for coming by the booth! Could be a fun project down the line. After looking into those particular bags a bit, we realized that they could use quite a bit of improvement aesthetically. I know aesthetics are subjective, but the first thing, in my mind, that would have to be replaced are those huge piano hinges on the outside of the bag!"

I would like to see you make the Defender bags. My FXDP needs them. Improving the hinge would be one thing, also making them compatible with passenger pegs. I'll be watching this thread.

I just don't think a batwing style looks right with that little headlight that is stock on dyna's. I'll never give up my fatboy headlight.

I agree. The switchback headlight looks good also.
