This was posted on Indian Triumph of Fargo;s FB page, I think it looks pretty cool. I may rethink putting bags back on the America.




Ride like you mean it.

It's cool looking swoosh , but on the bag it loooks out of place . The swoosh works on the curves of the tank but it's awkward on the squarish bag .
Just thinkin' and ponderin'.

The swoosh should be to the scale of that hard bag, and should be higher on it, like on the top half....wherever, it could " flow" a little better front to rear...

Yeah, I'm with Wade on this one. I think a better alternative might be to use that off-white color to paint a stripe about 4 inches wide down the fenders(both front and rear) and across the top length of the bags.


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
