Default HD Hard bags/ Fairing help

I have the opportunity to acquire HD hard bags and fairing cover from an e-glide for very reasonable.

I know that snowman has put these on his sporty, and I would like to make a mini-bagger too.

Iam looking for snowman's original thread, and any other "how to's" for this project.

Apparently I suck at searching.

Any help would be appreciated...and I will post pics of the build/ final result!!

Ride safe!
-Casey

I just got mine done and posted this thread about it:
http://xlforum.net/vbportal/forums/s....php?t=1497948

My wife and I went on a 300 mile ride yesterday and it is so much better now. With the temps nearing 100 It was also pretty nice being able to haul the cooler. haha

I used the Cycle Visions Bagster kit to install HD Ultra Glide bags. Actually if you look at the signature pic you can see what a difference it makes on the bike. The only thing that was disappointing was I had to take my RK shocks off and put the stock ones back on to get the kit to fit out of the box.
