Yeah, I know it doesn't look great but my bike has to be convertible to make it work for me. I do like showing off but I also like going places.
I was thinking about going with a RK type touring pack like Daniii has done but I already have the biggest Cruiserbag (http://www.cruiserbag.com/). The nice thing is I can have it off in 20 seconds. It was great on my last trip with it mounted on my passenger seat so I could lean on it. I've since acquired a luggage rack and now have more options for allowing a passenger.
So, for now I guess I'll hold off on the touring pak. One of these days I'd like to see how it feels behind a batwing but up until now I'm accustommed to full facial wind with a flip up helmet. Open face is not an option right now.

I like it. Nice clean look.

I like it too. And don't think that it doesn't look great because it has a couple of functional accessories.

Does an F-16 look any less intimidating because it's carrying a couple of extra extended range fuel pods and a two full wingloads of sidewinder missiles?

Here's my version so far:
Sorry for the pics, It started raining so I took pics inside the garage. Put the bags on yesterday, got it for a good price off ebay. Planning on a long trip next week.

I love the black & chrome. Nicely done!

I really appreciate all the effort you made posting pictures of that Axio bag. I looked long and hard at it but I don't think it holds enough from what I can tell. Good for all the gadgets and maps though.
Let me know what you think after the trip.

I know, you're right. It's impossible to make a V-Rod look bad.

Wish those bags worked on the Street Rod.

I like it. Nice clean look.

Looks good! Can you tell me more about that Givi trunk...like the model, volume, how it attaches to the luggage rack, etc. I would like to see a side shot and a rear shot if you've got them.

Givi E360. 36 liters - its basically the same dimensions as HD's tour pack for the Road king.

Excellent General! You've just opened up a new doorway for me.

Good luck. the full model is E360 Monokey.. Universal adapter plate and backrest is extra..

Got a machinist friend who is working on a bracket to eliminate the luggage rack - let you know how that works out..

Now that is CLEAN.

TheGeneral: Is your case not the E460? the E360 seems to be the side cases on the Givi website.

Yes I am sure, it can be used as a top or side case.. The 460 looked to bulky.

Now that is CLEAN.
Thanks..Just hoping my luggage rack dosen't end up like yours..

TheGeneral: On the GiviUSA website the E360 is now the side case with the handle, pictured below. The E460 is the top case. Here is the link: http://www.giviusa.com/caschi_borse_bauli_accessori.asp?CO_ID=9490

Just trying to clairfy for anyone wanting to purchase:

It looks to me that the 40litre E360 can be used either as a top case or a side case...so it's still in the running for me. Just gotta buy a backrest and universal mount. The E460 is a bit bigger at 46 litres/ 1 inch taller.

Bigger is better I'm thinking.

Bigger is better I'm thinking.

If, so, then the E52 may be the ticket:

Another option is th v46. I like its looks and it holds two full face helmets and you can change the color of the top panel if you change bikes, or paint http://www.giviusa.com/caschi_borse_bauli_accessori.asp?CO_ID=9492

The Monolock series has smaller boxes that still hold a full face plus, and have pads and stop lights (on some models): http://www.giviusa.com/caschi_borse_bauli_accessori.asp?cat=352&lang=en

so will the universal adapter thingy work on our bikes?

I would be concerned with the stock luggage rack and any significant loads.

well, we need those steels one, then. These look really spiffy.

Read the fourth line down, "can be used as a top case.."

Yes it does... Look at my pics earlier in this thread...

I didn't like the reflectors on the E460... If you want to get a backrest the E83 is not available in North America. I got mine from http://www.bykebitz.co.uk/acatalog/C47_Backrest.html in the UK..

very nice more ideas never ends hhaa

I like! It looks like I would have to remove it to open my Corbin bags though :(

I tried the E370 on the bike (did not buy) and it is narrow enough that I could get the lids of my HD hard bags open, I assume it would work with the Corbin bags. It holds a fullface with room for a half helm or jacket. Almost went for it, but am still having problem with the scooter box stigma.

I don't want to take my Road King to the rally. Just doesn't make too much sense to me. so I will have to look into this. Thanks.

I will have to look into that. I use a tail bag (pics in gallery) right now when I travel but it is a bear to get on and off when I need something in the saddle bags!

I'd like to get ahold of a set of Road King Custom hard saddlebags to see if they could be fitted. I like how they use the same quick release as our airbox cover. http://www.bikez.com/pictures/harley-davidson/2004/20732_0_1_4_flhrsi%20road%20king%20custom_Image%20credits%20-%20Harley-Davidson.jpg
