| | Posted : 28 Jun 2011 - 23:34 Post title : Leatherworks bags | | | I'm looking at their bags and I saw a few people went with the 128's. My questions with the easy brackets, would the 120's work? Does the easy bracket setup "push" the bags out away from the bike far enough to clear the shocks?
128 measures 16 L x 12 H x 7 W
120 measures 18 L x 13.5 H x 7 W
It adds about 700 ci more storage getting close to the Hardstreet Slimline bags (which I'm still tossing around as a possiblity).

Good looking bags, I think I would go with the larger one just for that little extra room.
Their website claims they both will work on the T-Bird.

These bags are great. I put a set on a dyna wide glide years ago, they went with the bike but i still see them from time to time on group rides as it now a friends bike. they have held up to thousands of miles of being stuffed to capacity ( and beyond) and still look and work great. So when i got the t bird they where one of my first purchases for it. this set appears to me more of the same wonderfully built bags.
I would recommend the bungee net eyelets for the top of the bags. They work great and let you strap all kinds of gear on top of them as well. Also their lock kit that has the ratcheting bars is worth the price ( although I cant remember what they cost) they allow you to lock them up even if you can barely close them.

The 128's are big and much bigger and you will not have room for the passengers legs and they might touch the pipes when loaded.
