Gonna add that to my 19’ Iron. Just got done with my “Block” mods to my dream machine. Lepera, Rineharts, drag bar, sweet flipped mirrors, tank lift and led headlight. I wanna be a BLOCKHEAD when I grow up lol! (Lol I’m 53) thanks for the install vid. All your vids have been my “Mod manual”
lol, nice! Happy the vids have helped out 👍
I'm going for the same mods on mien! What's the lepers and rineharts tho?
D2M DRUMMA21 meaning lepera bare bones solo seat and Rinehart slip-on pipes (different from what blockhead has)
The rear left-side of a Sportster has always looked a little plain to me and in need of something. The right-side has the glorious pipes. I added a swing arm bag to my 2003 and it looks sweet and fills in the gap. Keep making the videos. Thanks!
Like the driver side or passenger side?
I just got mine today, I agree it does need like there is something missing.
Passed on the straps and used nice 180 lb zip ties on mine.
I agree. I also use zip ties on mine.
This works amazingly well, HOWEVER trying to mount this bag like this with Viking bag saddle bags is INCREDIBLY tight. Still works amazing though.
Just got this bag and installed it on my 2000 dyna. Wasn’t technically made for it but it works. I also used zip ties I couldn’t get the straps to work.
Well this is awesome! I was just on the HD website taking a look at different bags debating between saddle and swing arm. Thank you for the perfectly timed video!
Haha, happy the video helped and was well timed!
Put one of these on my Low Rider S. It's great for a few small items when your out and about.
I love you. Currently sitting on my iron right now about to take off on a group ride for the holiday. Thanks for the inspiration over the past year 🖤
🤘
Bro.... your video is the reason I want a 883. Now I have one. 2022. And I bought the same bad but brown. The paper don't make sense... you the true mvp!!!
So I installed one on each side. What I found when installing the bags is that swapping the rear peg mounts and then inverting them. At least for the 2004-06 models. Installing them this way lowers the mounts and when you pull them in, they pull in towards the front instead of jamming up against the bags.
We just added this exact same bike to our garage(wife’s bike). I sent this video to my wife after she ordered herself a swing arm bag. She loved being able to install it using this video. Best part about the home thing is I didn’t hafta get mean looks for giving her unwanted advice lol.
I’m about to start making these bags, your vid helped understand the leather fixing part.
I have a 48 and going to make leather bags for my first bike then others.
I’ve been looking around for one for a few weeks now but didn’t think it would be very secure but def getting one now
Oh yeah, definitely secure. Had one on the bike for awhile and no issues!
I started looking into something like this that would fit on my fat bob. Like always great video Blockhead. 🤙🏻
It's a nice small storage option that isn't saddlebags! Hope you find a good one for the Fat Bob!
It’s 4 years since your vid but still, Thank You. I woulda spent many hours figuring out the best way to mount this. I just can’t handle reading instructions - nope - even with pictures.
I ride an Indian Scout Bobber and have tried to roll a bad a few different ways - sadly, I just gave up. Good how-to though!
The way you can do things one handed; if, (God forbid) you lose an arm, you'd be fine doing things with just one arm...
Just some weak humor brother. I don't need this type of bag but I really enjoy all your videos.
Thanks man.
lol, y'all just don't see the use of the other hand, I set it all up and the magic is in the editing, haha
Just got one for my 48. Not the same brand but pretty much the same. Love it. Looks great and very handy to have! 👌🏾
Looking to get my wife an iron 883 the swing arm bag will work great for her. Thanks for the info keep up the good work.
Just got mine W&M swingarm in the mail this morning. Grabbed it after seeing your description video. This "how to install" came at the right moment! I'm ready for my install this evening but...my side cover seems pretty sturdy to be removed...it could be nicer if you've showed out that phase. Anyway thanks for your amazing vlog and work. Keep on with same passion dude. Greetings from Italy
Side cover just pops off, give it a tug from the top. If you have the new cover snaps, you'll need to press those up to free the cover, those hold much tighter. Enjoy your bag!
@@BlockheadMoto Thanks man, just pulled it down with both hands in a shot. Now bag's on, and it fits perfectly the bike! Now it's AN knurled grips turn! Wish me luck!
I got the same bag. I used zip ties instead. The buckles get in the way
My thoughts exactly, just replace them when you need to pull it off. I'd use two in each place
Good alternative!
I might go this route eventually.
Now I am trying a small pair of throw over bags with stays, made by the same company
Chris Parker exactly what I did, 2 zip ties on each.
BLOCKHEAD thanks. I felt I couldn’t cinch down the bag well enough with the buckle straps too. The zip ties of course can go where you need them.
Love the look and function of this. Looking for one for my 18 Softail. The Harley version for that bike doesn't have great reviews so I am looking at a Viking.
Wanted to say thank ya for the vid, it helped a great deal. I have seen other swing arm bags that hung down and away and did not care for how they looked. Following your instructions I ended up with a very nice looking setup.
Always wondered how they got fitted
Finally! Thanks Mr. Blockhead, that only took a few years to post lol. I just ordered mine for my ‘09 883. Perfect timing!
You should do a test ride on the 2020 softail standard. Just upgraded from a sportster. I really enjoy your videos, especially test ride videos
You know if you guys look at the local HD dealerships some of them will have a swap meet and they’ll get rid of extra stuff they’ll have (parts,bags etc...) for super dirt cheap I picked up this style bag for my Dyna for 20$ not all of them do it but never hurts to check
Great video man it helped a lot! Just put this bag on my 2013 sportster 72
Excellent mate! Just installed on my '02 Sportster and routing the straps as you did made for a solid, no movement install that lines up great with the shock! Would not have gone as smooth or been as tight of an install without this video. Subscribed and thumbs up. Thanks! Ride safe!
The passenger peg info was so perfect!
I don’t even have a Harley Davidson. If I did it would be this model and would definitely rock that bag. My first bike is a 01’ Shadow Spirit 750cc. I had saddlebags on it for a while but always felt like they were way too big. Not sure this bag would fit that bike but I love how low profile it is. Pretty much only riding my Grom these days…
Love the video. Just bought same bag. Havent put it on yet.
Was wondering how I’d get around the pegs. Thanks!
Give it a go. Looks great. Nice and easy and looks like it’s made to fit on the Forty Eight.
I’ve put several swing arm bags on and know exactly how to do it...super easy. Still watched the video...lol
lol, appreciate the watch 😁
I’m going to try today hopefully works 😧
I have the same one super handy and great quality
Awesome! I might just need to put one of those on my sportster.
Thanks for this video. This convinced me to get one and just installed today and fits PERFECT!
Great!!! I saw a previous video and been looking for it!! Great thanks for the passenger pegs detail I was wondering about that the most! I wish they had a way to lock it securely from thief’s. I live in Compton CA. There’s a bit of thief’s in my area to say the least
The backpack is a good idea, just wondering if You could do one with a Sporty Engine.
Got My bag mounted easy, thanks for the video 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Those are super helpful. Were you talking about the blockhead bike bag or the six pack? 😬
Why not both? lol 😅
I don’t have any space in between the frame for the top two straps. Like nothing at all.
also leave a decent amount of slack on those straps so you're not messing with the range of movement of your swingarm
Got the same bag on my Nightster. It's an awesome choice 👍
Clean install. Looks great 🤙🏼
Got the same bag for the wife’s sportster. Thinking about changing out the handlebars for her. Did you have to change out your cables for them bars?
Which inch ape hanger do you have on the bike? It looks awesome!
Thank you so much papi
Will it fit a hoodie, or leather jacket?
If ya got two straps to frame... which in theory, frame doesn’t move .... and one strap to swing arm ... which in theory articulates up and down ... isn’t that going to cause stretching or breaking of straps, because ya tightened those straps pretty good. Once ya riding and swing arm moves up and down, won’t that cause a problem.
😎
Curious as well.
Never had a problem before and ran this bag on this bike for over a year.
BLOCKHEAD obviously it’s made for it , but it just seems strange the way it connects. 😎👍
Can you fit a hoodie in the bag ?
Another video in the bag!! Mwahaha, mwahaha, ahaha, heh heh, mmmm, mmm, mm.. ..
Cyberpunk: Puts his head down and walks out of the room...
😂😂😂😂
😅 lol, I approve
Very cool
Thanks!
Great video Block.
Very helpful. I thought I would have to buy a bracket for mine 😂
cant wait to get this for my sportster I like this look better then the big bags and wont have to worry AS much if I drop my bike again which I probably will lol
Can I ask a stupid question _ what can you put in a swing arm bag?
Can you add a small lock on it for some security ?
Mine can carry four loaves of bread, it's slightly bigger, but these are French loaves!
Hey Blockhead! Any word on the next FLMM? Everyone is ready to get out and ride and meet up with folks again!
Will make an update video but probably getting postponed.
@@BlockheadMoto bummer. Whenever it is, I’m gonna make my best effort to ride down from South Carolina.
SWINGARM MOVES UP & DOWN...THAT WEARS ON THE BAG?
Any issues with the swingarm movement interfering with the bottom strap or the bag
I wonder how many block head copy cat iron builds are out there in circulation right now..... I know I may have one 😬😬
That Sportster is pretty sweet! I'd love to have one as a ride around town bike.
Perfearound the town bike!
You are a lifesaver! Good stuff... Keep up the good work!
Thx
Dope! Waiting for them CBR mod vids!
Incoming!
Would this bag fit on a Harley Davidson Street 500?
Is there a way to keep the saddlebag and add the passenger pegs? Or is it one or the other
Is this big enough to fit a rain suit in the bag?
What size is that handle bar and where can i purchase it from? Ty
Is it bad taste to put the swing bags on both sides ? I ordered some and for some reason they gave me a left and right. Unsure if I can put them on both sides ? Or because the pipes on the right side take a lot of space , is it just not recommended ?
Any replies will be helpful!
Do you know if this would fit a 2020 iron 883
Can you do a riding video with your bicycle?
How do you like that jack for your sportster? I’m looking for one so I can take forks off…also where are the jack points?
Any issues with the bag so close to the suspension? Also the straps hold up pretty good routed in that back slot?
I'm ordering one today.
Hey blockhead So I have a 2015 Harley xg500 will this work on mines also
Thank you 🙏 great video very helpful 👌
What up blockhead! Quick question for you do you think this would work on a 2000 Dyna? I’d love something like this. I don’t like the look of bags but something small like this would be nice.
J'ai acheté ce modèle il est top et bien plus pratique que le harley car il ya des clips rapides derrières les boucles métalliques qui servent au final juste de déco
Does it fir on 1200
Does it come with 1 or 2 bags? Right and left side
Would this fit a 2020 883?
Hey, someone’s got a set of these on eBay and they offered it for a decent price but I don’t drive a sportster. I ride a softail 99 Nightrain to be exact. Will this work and on the right side would it be too close to the exhaust?
Great video as always. Have a question for you. How forward-facing are you with the bars you have on your Sportster? Was thinking of getting the same bars but not sure if it will allow me to relax a bit more on my Saddlemen 2 up seat? Also, does the Willie and Max bag come for both the left and the right sides?
Sure would be nice if this merchandise company made quality affordable (as in not overpriced) motorcycles
You think it would make it uncomfortable for a passenger. Wanting these but my ol lady rides with me
Blockhead can you do a Fatbob test ride and review???

Hey blockhead I am about to buy this bag but I have one cuestion, does this bag doesn't make you mess with the wind pulling you to the sides going in high speed on interstate?
Hey blockhead can you install with the passager peg on without remove it
Yup!
@@BlockheadMoto Please show us how this is possible.
Plunderdog on Facebook makes the best bags for your sportsters.
Do you have a link to the cover you mentioned? I'm looking for one that would fit in there. Thanks!

Thanks for this video I just bought a 2020 Sportster Iron 1200 and I"m going with a swingarm bag vs saddlebags.
is that fit at roadster?
Suh blocky,cute bag xd
Yo blockhead you’ve really gotten me into motorcycles I get my license in about a year and I have been thinking about getting the Indian scout bobber I saw that you did a review on it and wanted to know if you think that it’s a good beginner bike or not
The 2020 Scout Bobber was the first bike I rode after I got my license. That bike has SO much power behind it, but it's very manageable. I was practicing clutch control and low speed maneuvers on it, it was going like 15 mph from just the clutch, but it was very responsive. One twist of the throttle in 3rd gear and I was going over 70. The only downside I saw with the bobber was that I was sliding off of the hard seat a lot. I'm gonna buy a Scout 60 instead just because they're more comfortable for me, but there's no difference in the engines. I'm 6'2 also
I’ve been riding the Scout Sixty Bobber for a couple months now. Not new to riding but yes, great starter bike. Lots of power when needed but not crazy either. Swapped the seat to the Indian comfort (everyone does) and plan to swap to the mini apes (6’2”). Highly recommend the Sixty, plenty of power compared to the regular bobber, but $2k cheaper and ALL blacked out! “Ride safe and stay vigilant!”
Amazing video
