MILWAUKEE (February 3, 2011) The new Detachable Leather Saddlebags – Blackline™ (P/N 90200353, $799.95) from Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories are designed to complement the stripped-down style of the new Blackline™ model. These saddlebags can be removed from the motorcycle with a pull of an internal handle, leaving behind two inconspicuous docking points. Finished in rich black with contrasting light-grey stitching, these bags feature traditional leather straps and chrome buckles that conceal convenient quick-release closures. A textured-vinyl, pouch-style lid opens to reveal 800 cubic inches of space in each bag. A rigid backing plate helps the bag retain its shape. These bags are compatible with other detachable accessories when installed with the appropriate docking hardware kits. Installation requires separate purchase of Turn Signal Relocation Kit and appropriate Docking Hardware Kit.

The Detachable Leather Saddlebags are one of several new Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessory items designed specifically for the Blackline, including quick-release windshields, two-up and solo seats, detachable sissy bar uprights and passenger backrest pads, a luggage rack, and more. See an authorized Harley-Davidson dealer for details or check the GMA website.
