The new Sportster Single-Sided Swing-arm Bag (P/N 90200572 Black Leather, P/N 90200573 Brown Distressed Leather; both at USD219.95) from Harley-Davidson Genuine Motor Accessories will hold riding essentials a rider might otherwise stuff into pockets or bungee across the passenger pillion.
Constructed of heavyweight leather, the bag features a pouch-style flap lid that is secured with two quick-disconnect clips hidden behind traditional straps and buckles.
The semi-rigid-backed bag is secured to the left side of the bike with easy-to-install brackets and adjustable straps.
Shaped to hug the contour of the frame, this 430-cubic-inch capacity bag gives a Sportster an old school look. It fits 2004-later Sportster models equipped with solo seats. Installation requires removal of any passenger pegs.

Putting just 1 bag on a new bike doesn’t make it look “old school”… It simply looks like you lost the other bag!
