What do y’all think of the top-open bags vs clamshell / side open bags on the Softail? Leave a comment and let us know your thoughts!
Top open bags definitely. Side open bags drop shit out when opening.
Top open are wayyyyy better than clamshells. Would have been kinda neat to see Bobber style leather bags too but the carbon fiber looks sick. Imagine carbon fiber with some gold weaved into it. Goldzilla fucks either way.
Put some 6x9s in dem bags ! Fuck the sport glide left overs ugly AF
Top open all the way, I just took of my stock bags on ST and put on the V2H FXRP bags.
Top open for sure.
So much yes! Once Harley brings out Low Rider ST's with a factory 2:1 with these "proper" bagger bags they'll outsell the Roadglide easily.
I tend to agree … and top it off with a bit of an infotainment center. Screen,. AirPlay something a bit more usable to keep phone in pocket
They’ll never do that lol
I installed this setup with the nasty hog chopped bags with the fuel moto contender 2into1 and I was also worried about clearance
But to my surprise it had plenty of room alot more than that hpi pipe
That’s the exact set up i want but I’m worried about my sawicki speed mid length hitting the bottom
I love how Zuko is genuinely interested in the build
Always!
I think they look great but just like Chris said it's a little too close for comfort with the exhaust. Other than that I think Chris did a hell of job modifying the brackets to make it work as well as him and IronJ doing this video 👍🤙
Nice job Chris. I run a blue dot 🔵 incandescent tail light on my 2002 Night Train, I wasn’t feeling the integrated LED, so I cut in some dot trailer leds, blacked out into each bag. Spade connectors for quick disconnect but once you have bags, there’s no going back lol.
I like how he dresses even if it’s summer. Keeps him warm in the cold office. Keep doing you
Life saver about the passenger pegs. I knew about the exhaust but was curious with the pegs because I am running the same on my st. Thanks for all the hard work!! keep em coming!
Both the Advanblack and the Hogworkz brackets say exhaust needs to be below the axle centerline which explains why he needed to modify the brackets
Good shit Chris! You need your own Chanel bud! Get some of that 💰
Carbon fiber is a cool look on bikes. And nice Boris accent 👌 LOL.
Look at Chris just taking over the camera now and being comfortable with it.
Who’d have thought! It only took a few years, lol
I like the bags on there. I think they look sharp!! Definitely like the taillight. That was very bright on camera. Can't imagine how it looks in person. My 2 cents worth!!
Justin’s fit is always on point 🔥🍻
😎
🦌
Just go to home defect. Get some foil tape from hvac section. And tape the bottom of that bag above exhaust. Or make aluminum heat sheild. Put some dyna mat on the back or something
Love the bags even though I don't like bags
Beautiful
Ya i dont like the look of the clamshell bags, the og touring hard bags look best imo....althought those carbon bags are sick except for the price, thatll make you sick...lol. Can't wait to see what exhaust you got coming......dude just run the good old vance and hines 2 into 2 radius pipes...
Maybe ask the Thrashin guys where they got the carbon fibre fairing for their ST. Bags look great.
What if you put some heat protection tape under there by the exhaust?
nice ! I've put Hogworkz saddlebags kit on my wife's '18 Heritage Softail and it fits great
Bags look good! Good stuff guys, so fun you just did it even without Blockhead knowing of it, lol.
Sneaky sneaky!
Bags look awesome!
That setup looks great on your bike!
Thanks man!
Those bags rock. Good work on the mounts Chris.
And, SkyNet is real!
Good work Cris! i plan on doing the same with my ST someday (since i challenged myself with fabricating highway bars, i just might challenge myself building those brackets you made) just for the extra storage when taking long trips.
Not sure if you men requested a same size clam shell for the right side that will not get in the way of the 2-1 exhaust ?
Great vid! What grinding wheel was that? To protect the right bag from the pipe get that Nihilo Concepts Heat Shield Tape in Gold.
Pimp My Ride - Overtime!
Very clean bill will look for the buying my ST Lowrider even more if you guys sold that setup. And something else besides, just carbon fiber, you guys could bank I’d buy.
I think the black carbon looks good with your bike.
Should have just lowered the muffler. The Advanblack brackets fit the bags and bike just fine when the muffler is below the rear axel.
why not use that nasa gold heat dispersing tape on the bag so they don't melt, just a thought
Id have gone with carbon fiber FXRP bags from Villain2Hero rather than these. I love mine and they didn't require a frame mount, only the struts.
That, or I'd have mounted a new exhaust. There's a ton of great options that are below the axle centerline and I'm sure you guys have a few in your shop.
Way too close for comfort the way it is now
The Bags are Awesome! I would love to do that to my Low Rider ST.
For the A.I... John Conner doesn't approve of your potential collaboration with Skynet
Looks great. Would the stuff race cars use to deflect heat work on the bottom side of the bag? I don't know what that stuff is called.
Those bags are sweet!!!! Not a fan of the clamshells.
Can you guys do a video of the same process but with hard chop bags on a 2018+ streetbob for us broke dudes out here
#blockhead
way better then stock hate the clamshell bags
Love the bags on the bike. When you get your new custom exhaust sell me the one you are taking off. It would look so sick on my low rider s!!!!
It’ll probably be up for grabs if you’re seriously interested 👍🏼
@@BlockheadMoto I am serious. Great I’ll be waiting. I think it will look badass on my bike. It’s that sand stone white and it’s too quiet. Lol.
Zuko double, triple checking Chris work lol!!!
Looks great. I remember when you were shopping for a bike and couldn’t decide what to get. A bagger or like a Low Rider S? You weren’t ready to go full bagger and look at you now!! Block when I first started watching you umm you n Ms Block were together, your voice has changed. You had a very distinctive voice then. What happened dude? Lol
This bike has come a long way since then! The bags are useful for trips for sure. And y’all used to always hear my voice in the helmet, which = my voice closer to the mic, which causes what they call vocal proximity, adding richness to the vocal quality. When the mic is further away, I have to speak louder, so less vocal proximity richness 😅
@@BlockheadMoto interesting description . You also sounded younger lol which you were. Lol
Peace out!
Dope bags!!
Hi 👋, Guys . Did you just get nipped by your German Shepherd , I am sorry to say I didn’t like the fitting of those bags 💼, especially as they are empty and they are virtually touching the exhaust, I think that should of made new support brackets, I love the exhaust, and the bags.
Back in 1999 , I purchased a Soft Tail Deuce, and purchased a set Hepco & Backer , side bags and top box , they come with inner bags , they were called Journey , with all of the hardware, I then purchased just the hanger brackets for the Deuce bags, and fabricated new mountain brackets, it take me 2 days including repainting the frames, billet aluminium brackets. It was less than half price of the original bags and kit,
I love your work shop Tutorials, I look 👀 forward to seeing and hear 👂 your new exhaust, great backing music, I am listening to this through my recently rebuild transmission line loudspeakers cabinets, stay and ride safe, Phil from the moulin France
You guys need to check out the Swag Off Road tables for port a bands 👍
I think they look really good love you’re vids man keep it up
Sweet jebus. For the price they should come with bloody hardware lol.
🔥🔥🔥
A I - Absolutely Insane 🤔
So these brackets will not work with passenger pegs...or just the ones John has? Love this set up, however passenger pegs are a deal breaker.
You have to get a spacer for the passenger peg that block has on his bike, or just rig it up with some washers stacked together. I did that and it worked
Edit, I have the same pegs as block
why did you use the advanblack bracket not the nastyhog one?
I thought nasty hog makes a bad setup already made for the ST with quick release so you wouldn’t need to mounting hardware
Any chance you can go over how to swap from forward controls to mid controls on a sportster? I have a 2006 XL1200 Custom and I want to swap to mids and there is no videos for my generation bike
Bags look great. When is the fairing going to Dave and Cindy?
? I need a set of hardshell bags (vivid black) for a 2023 Softail Standard.. suggestions? Thks
What brand are those dummy shovelhead rocker box covers?
“Ghost” ed.. nice pun
Was that Custom Dynamics tail light plug and play? I wanted to buy one for my ST but wasn’t sure if it was a plug and play for it with the Turning signals integrated to clean it up.
What about a prototype heat shield? Gives people options if they cant change the exhaust but want the bags 🤓
Looking forward to see what you do to short out the heat problem 🤔
Put a prototype exhaust on it, problem solved, info soon 👍🏼
those bags look so much better than that clam shell crap they put stock on the low rider st. i wish they would use a smaller skinnier verson of those on the stock low rider st. that would be too great. thats why harley will never do that
What base plate did you use for the ProBeam tail light?
The bags look good "better with Gold accents" The AI thing is a scary thing if in the hands of the wrong people, but could be good thing in the right application.
What happen to the bike section in the description
Ai is cool, keep Justin around though 😅
Do customers ever have an issue with having their license plate on CZcams? You could have a bunch of basic blockhead mock plates with magnets glued to the black to quickly attach and remove at will.
Did block say why he wanted this rather than the ready to buy clamshell?
nevermind, i should have waited till the end lol
Top open ftw! 😁
Awesome work. Bags came out great. I'm curious if a customized heat shield under the bag will help reduce & deflect heat from the exhaust.
A.I. is going to eliminate a lot of jobs in the future and affect how society interacts and operates. Kinda scary.
I work in cyber security and have been leveraging AI as a time saver in some areas, but it'll never be a "replacement" for the human element.
did the winner of the blue & gold road glide sell it back ?
No, he asked us to store it for him till he’s back in FL 👍🏼
Harley needs to come out with a V4. I am sure R&D tight as emission issues and electric future. With higher interest rates/tighter money more cash going into paying debt vs R&D and innovation. Many high debt companies will go bankrupt
AI is scary. Bags look dope.
Love the bags but a big fuck no on AI.
Has nobody watched terminator or iRobot lol
AI would be nice for a chatbot especially when booking appointments but it ain't got shit on your or Justin's editing chops
👏👏👏 facts 😆
🤘🤘
Must be just me. I don't like any bags on that bike. Just looks way better without them.
Def looks good without! But useful to have these as an option for trips 👍🏼
Hot !!!!
Watch Mission Impossible “Dead Reckoning” if you want to understand the dangers of AI.
I will jump into the middle.
Doesn't seem like a very good plug for Advanblack. I bought a set of saddle bags and their color match sucked!!
The brackets would prob work fine if we used them as directed, but we didn’t 😅
Instead of modifying everything why not do research and see which popular 2-1 exhaust would work without all the modifications?
Bags look great, stay away from Skynet
WHy is music cuts soooooo loud. Enjoy your vids except when I want to hear your voice.
Man that blue/ gold bike is there. Makes it seem like these giveaways are rigged.
The winner (Nathan) lent it to us so we could enter it into the OCC Invitational bike show, and asked if we could store it at our shop for awhile till he’s back in FL - czcams.com/video/LjnDKZ7BG4o/video.html
Those are knock off KRUESI bags
You did what everyone with AI is currently doing, just say "AI" 100 times in a video/call, and you views/stock goes up. So all the studying you did paid off.
The bags are cool, but $6k? That's like 30% of a new low rider s. The question is, do I need to pay 30% of a low rider s to hold my Gatorade zero? I'd just chug it, and then pee on the side of the road. But in all seriousness, it's cool, but the price isn't justifiable unless I have a lot of disposable income.
Doesn’t seem to work bc video ain’t performing the best 😂
Yeah the CF bags are pricey, hence why switching over to the plastic bags. Review coming soon!
I'm not going to write or say anything against AI, because IT'S listening..
The US NAVY ran a simulation with their AI computer program that controlled their, tag along fully armed jet drone units. Consisting of, one human pilot in a F22 and two AI controlled drones, following behind.
When they programmed in the mission parameters they stated the mission was to be completed at all cost. During the mission something went wrong. So they aborted the mission.
The AI Program wouldn't abort. The NAVY tried everything to shut it down and couldn't. The AI decided it was being attacked by the enemy and turned on the Human Pilot and tried to destroy the F22 and the Pilot. Then continue to achieve its objective and complete the mission at all cost.
Lucky for Us, it was a Simulation..
I don't think we're ready for AI...

Fairings DON'T belong on Softails.... period
Great vids dudes! A.I. shhmaay I. forget that, keep yalls vids real af🤘🛵
