I finally got around to installing my new Cobra Dragsters and Fox Creek Leather saddlebags. I think the combo worked out quite well. I hard mounted the bags cause I like to show off that rear fender. The flames on the bags carry the theme from the tank and solo seat. Very happy with all of it....

those bags are perfect. First set of leather bags that I have liked on the Stryker. A++

I just took my bags off this weekend intill I need them for a trip. Fell in love with the look of the bike again. Couldnt stop looking at it all day. What did u do to hard mount them because when I get a solo seat I dont want the strap over fender.

I used a set of Cobra Saddlebag Supports. Drilled through the bags, one large washer on the inside of the bag, one large washer outside, bolted through the supports, and into the fender. Came out real clean.

Oh, and used a little loctite to avoid a disaster.

Good call on the hard mounting. Looks way better that way.

Thanks 1304cc. Was thinking something like that but with piece of flat bar on inside. Good to know it works. Looks good for when I need bags. Again thanks.

I purchased some flat bar as well, but these Fox Creek bags are built like a tank. The back side is really thick plastic. Sandwiched in between two washers, it's good to go.

Excellent job 1304cc, :thumb: love the look. How does the dragsters sound?

Bike looks great! Nice Pipes!!

 

[1304cc]

Thanks very much guys.
Toby, the Dragsters are flat out awesome. They sound like the coming of the Almighty.
I pulled out the baffles and wrapped them with Helix muffler wrap and re-installed.
The result is the same badass low rumble, but without any raspy overtones.
Just perfect.

Bags look really good dude!

Very Nice. Giving me some ideas.

Looks great. Nice touch on keeping the theme going front to back.

Thx very much guys...

I think I'm gonna find a painter to put pinstripe highlights around the flames on the tank. Just enough to make them pop a bit more.

I must agree the bags are the best I have ever seen on the Stryker.

Thx very much Patrice.
Fox Creek makes a great product. I have their leather overpants as well. Highly recommended.

 

[imjoesnuffy]

Very nice! Do you have a part number? I looked on their website and tried googling as well, and couldn't find them.

It appears the flame bags have been discontinued.

Saddlemen Tattoo bags are flamed - even in different thread colors. Wish they'd make sissybar bags/luggage. They have the saddle bags and tool bag. Almost got them, but since I couldn't find a sissy bar bag/ luggage to go with the flame theme... I just went with River Road braided set..
