Remember the classic Harley-Davidson/Royalite saddlebags of the 50’s and 60’s. They appeared in 1952 on the Harley K models and in 1954 on Panheads and were also popular on Duo-Glides and Sportsters.
They are back in after-market production reintroduced by BB Reproductions for use on classic Harley motorcycles but also on modern Softails. The classic Royalite® Plastic Bubblebag is similar to the original in every details. For current Harley models, the Fullback version of these hard bags has extra inside space because they don’t need a back wall recess required by classic motorcycles for chain and axle nut clearance. A large variety of brackts is available including for a few models from Indian, Triumph, Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha & Suzuki. BB Reproductions

Everyone can stop fretting, I know you’ve all been WORRIED-SICK my failed OIL pressure sending switch to my Panhead, but I received one from Kick-Start® yesterday (616) 245-8991, our small parts, gotta-have-it-now (by priority-mail) antique parts house.
Outta my way……………I’m building again.
Beautiful bags….love the white one.
Always loved the retro stuff.
Because Cyril is very influential with his blog I bet you are going to see them back on a lot of 60’s and 70’s bikes.
A wonderful part… glad to see it available!
Cool indeed! And I see they’re thicker and sturdier than the originals, that’s a welcome improvement.
I think they’re BUTT UGLY! To each their own….
we used a pair of these bags on a 64flh that we did last year. i was very impressed by their fit finish and overall quality. they are amazing
