I noticed that several owners have the Beetle Bags. Are they good size? Does anyone have a picture with them on a bike with the Corbin touring seat, Corbin Backrest, and the Triumph Passenger backrest?

Any ideas yet on a truck?

Are there any quick release Windshields, or bags out yet?

Lotsa guys have those combos. Check out Ogre's album or Toystoretom's album.

The screen is not as easily detachable as a Road King but it comes off quickly with the removal of 4 easy-to-get-to 12mm bolts. Probably takes about one minute to remove with my T-handle wrench. Davo

I love my Corbins and, while there are roomier bags, the beetle bags are MUCH larger than Harley bags. I'll have them loaded for bear in the next few weeks, making a trip to Oklahoma then Colorados Springs, then Sturgis, and however we head back..

Slid;

My handle is Royal-R3, go to the members albums... you will see two bikes side by side.. that's me. Follow the thread to other pictures... You should see some more with the set up you are asking for.
I am very pleased with the Corbin bags. I only wish that Corbin would develop a matching trunk w/ trunk frame to mount. In the meantime, I have a picture of a trunk that I found w/ lighting. I am working on the brackets when I have time. I am not a 'frabricator' so it's taking me a little longer to create an eye appealing solution.
If you want separate pictures, comments, email me or PM me..

Which Harley bags? Those little things they put on a Vrod maybe?

Harley makes a buncha different bags for every model. I've looked very closely at Beetle Bags on Tom's bike and a couple others. They are nice yes, but to say they are "MUCH" larger than the traditional painted hardbags on FLH-series baggers would be exaggeration IMO.

The Beetles' design might accomodate odd-shaped items a bit better.
