Just saying.................. Pork.

These are the standard bags from Harley so their the same ones that go a Street Glide or Ultra. I can fill both sides with equal amount. I don't know you're talking about Pork.

Post by: roadking spain on August 15, 2014, 07:41:03 AM: I really like the V&H big radius , but it`s my wife`s 2012 Conv. and she wants to go with pipes on each side .
She wants me to install the springer bags with fringes .I´ll post some pics as soon as i´m done .
thanks
John

Post by: paconico1992 on August 15, 2014, 07:48:00 PM: Expensive to paint since Harley won't release paint codes for CVO's. Bags and paint around 4 grand but worth it after hearing all the problems people are having with their soft bags falling off. The pipes are V & H True Duels. I also have a detachable chopped tour pak to match. I posted pics on the site somewhere?

Post by: paconico1992 on August 15, 2014, 07:55:04 PM: Don't buy bags stretched, the bike sits too low for them. I scrape my floor boards all the time. Imagine what the bags would look like, and those metal end pieces won't stop your bags from getting scratched.

Post by: 2 ROSE on August 15, 2014, 08:56:04 PM: Yeah Pacnoco1992,
Hard bags do look really good. I assume they are detachable also. I hope so cause the only time I have my bags on is when I am traveling. I love the look without them and without the passenger seat a lot for around town.

Post by: paconico1992 on August 16, 2014, 07:34:58 PM: bags are detachable just like the regular ones but the brackets aren't.

Post by: TexasLowrider on September 11, 2014, 01:46:42 AM: The hard bags look great on the bike. How hard was it to match the paint? Wouldnt mind putting SG bags on mine, but I dont think a local paint shop could match the paint scheme. I recently bought a used '12 in Abyss Blue with the catacomb graphics. Im assuming the Abyss Blue is the darker color and have no idea what the lighter blue is called.
