Anyone Wanna Trade Bags? 4 Years ago  
Don't know if I'm ready to do this yet, depends on what others say and offer. I recently purchased some black HD Police bags in excellent condition with the hockey pucks removed and the cool chrome buttons installed. No scratches or cracks. Have a key also. I was really looking for bags with a more rounded profile than the HDs. So......before I spend the time and $ to make new brackets, was wondering if there is anyone out there who has the stock R* hard bags, Tsukayu or other hard bags in either the 2008 Silverado cobalt blue or black and would be interested in making a swap deal of some sort. Were there ever hard bags made in the 2008 Silverado cobalt blue color?

Don't be too quick to dump what you have been able to snag. I purchased the same type with the Hockey pucks which I love and here is a picture, Street Glide owners eat your heart out.

Hope someone takes you up on this deal, those bags looked pretty perfect. I too like the rounded look!

I would be interested in purchasing them if you don't find a swap.

Here's a side shot but she's still on the table so the lighting isn't the best. But it will give you an idea



The side inserts on the bags are missing from that photo as they are out being engraved with the following...





Here is a pic with the inserts in place prior to the airbrushing of the flames on the bags.
