you might try boss bags, they have a direct fit (or so they told me) for my 08, haven't wanted to part with the $1100 for them, i did see them in Daytona and they looked like real nice bags, just another idea.... www.bossbags.com

Have Boss Bags on my WG2. They're worth the $. Extremely well built.

Yes ...At last!!!! !

Finally there now have the 2400 ltr detachable bags fitted and they look awesome!..Far better than I would've thought or expected! :pineapple:
Ok briefly it wasnt quite a straight forward fit but looking at it now you'd think it was!
Firstly the indicator relocation kit isn't wide enough to go over the fender strut!..So went to a local engineering firm and had one fabricated to fit...Secondly the steel support bar on the back of the bags had to be cut, shortened and welded back together and painted!
But I have to say all worthwhile and looks soooo cool! and now gives me proper storage that I can remove in 30 seconds when I get to a rally and ride around on my clean clutter free springer!..Fab :2vrolijk_21:
I'll post a few pics on here as soon as I download them from my camera..But any questions just give me a shout

I am thinking that the bags from the 2010 SE convertable will be able to be fitted to the springers  or these fat boy bags 88306-07 will prob also fit

Yes Im sure they would...I only chose these as they were the biggest that Harley did!....I reckon most softail detachable bags could work.... probably would just be a case of cutting down the rear support bar to size....check out where the indicators are too as they may need to be pushed backward.
Ferry booked now for Lugano...Getting slightly more excited as I sit here looking out at the pouring rain!
