@jhawkod I love the bags, mine has 12 inch apes, the throwback sissy bar and I just put bags on it yesterday for a trip, love them.....the thing about Harleys is that everybody makes it their own with whatever modifications they want, and as far as I'm concerned, as long as the owner feels good about the mods, then that is all that matters.....nice bike!
you're really ignorant. People need bags to haul luggage. It idiots like you that make people not read comments cause you have to make as a** of yourself
Did you have to get your bike dynoed on a computer after you added the slip on exhaust from cycle shack ? Also can you supply me with the name of the company you delt with on e-bay, i would like to get the same cycle shack slip ons. This bike sounds awesome. Thanks, Craig.
hello love the bike have the 09 and just about every think you have mini apes and all but the bags but my question is i tryed painting my heat shields and it didnt work very good it fladed off so please tell me what you did to yours and even how you drilled the holes in the shilds please tell me ty jesse
@jhawkod I had my heat shields powder coated with a ceramic coating. Find a local powder coating shop that can do ceramic (not all of them can) and have them done that way, they come out much nicer.
I just removed my thro over saddlebags off my nightster and found some nice little scratches on my rear fender. Check out to make sure you don't have any rubbing marks or scratches on yours. Ride hard!!
and mine. those bags suck and the daft upside down mirrors, whats that all about? and forward controls? fuckin' ruined it. stick some biltwell bars on it, solo seat from biltwell too, maybe short pipes, a jammer mirror, lose the freakin' indicators and fuckin' burn up the tyres bro....
FAir enough. Sorry I was so rude. The effects of several pints of Fursty Ferret and a chicken tikka masala i believe. Please accept my sincerest apologies.
ha! no problem! i have actually recently added mini-apes...not sure if thats your style or not, but again for comfort reasons i like it so much better.
apology accepted...no worries! i am sure i have said an offensive thing or two online before without meaning it... :)
dude, if you want to see a couple of tossy Brits chewing up a Sportster look at my videos, theres about seven of them following the build. Enjoy. Also my Springers on there and my latest project a 1972 Ironhead rigid project will be soon....
I love American Iron! Ride safe with those mini-apes bro!
I've just bought a nightster and it is going to be delivered on Wednesday - I can't wait. My question to you is where did you get your saddle bags from and I would be looking at getting some but I don't want to get a rear seat. I like the idea that it goes underneath the riders seat.
I like how low the bags are - we have two nightsters and were looking at a rack for the back but I like this better - lower profile. Are you using any stand off hardware under them or just tying them off?
nice bike. i've got one in silver & black. where did you find your saddle bags? i've thought about getting a set but had never seen them on a nightster.
i actually got the bags off ebay...just did a search for "sportster saddlebags". i am not too sure if i like the way they look, but they sure do come in handy.

wow. you say i f-ing ruined it, i say i adapted it to fit my needs...
bags: with gas prices i ride this to work as much as possible and i simply need to carry stuff.
controls: i am a big guy and the mids were way to uncomfortable
mirrors: again a big guy and i couldnt see over my shoulders, with em flipped i can actually see behind me now
