Can anyone please tell me what Bag Support Brackets these are?
My significant other is not happy with the traditional guard. She clainms here leg is always resting on it.
This looks like a solution to me.

The support brackets that just run under the bags are from a street glide.

Those supports are on the SEEGs and the Street Glides.

However, the MoCo also makes a rear crash bar that illiminates that problem...the top rail is tapered so that the passengers leg doesn't hit it but you still have the protection of a crash bar....  http://www.harley-davidson.com/gma/gma_product.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524442085867&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374309415997&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=2534374309415997&locale=en_US&bmUID=1312211504022&bmLocale=en_US

The bag supports you pictured are in a kit at Harley part number 46565-04.  With those supports be aware you completely lose the crash guards in front of the saddlebags.  So if the bike ever gets dropped or goes down it does so on the saddlebags rather than on the crash guards.

An alternative might be Harley kit part # 49087-01.  That's a pair of lower profile crash guards.  Hook up just as the originals do but sweep lower under the passenger's legs to allow more room.

Ouch.  Friend of mine (who is a exceptional rider) misjudged the tightness of a turn he was making at a gas stop and dumped his SG.  Like you said, right on the saddle bag and he just had a custom paint job done about six months before.  Not pretty even at that low a speed.  Just proves that all of us are capable of a brain fart and dumping our bike.  I doesn't take much to get off balance at slow speeds and tight turns.

Thanks All
Very valid point.

I am thinking the bar that is lower (Comfort Profile Rear Saddlebag Guard Kit), but still offers protection is a wiser choice.

They are also known as Harleys "cash cow" brackets....My wife learned all about that doing a U-Turn on a sloped curve in the roadway.....(her left leg grew shorter) ... We ended up putting on the style JC posted
