Liana, my wifey just bought the 750 a few weeks ago and she wants saddle bags and a windshield as well. She loves your choice of saddlebags. She and I were both curious about the brand of windshield you went with. If you have the windshield info handy, we would certainly appreciate it. Many thanks for the video!
Thanks so much www.vikingbags.com/motorcycle-hard-saddlebags.htm www.vikingbags.com/lamellar-black-medium-leather-covered-motorcycle-hard-saddlebags.htm
OK...... I read further down on the comments listing and answered my own question. Since it is an actual HD shield, how do you like the 25 inch height? May I ask how tall you are for this 25 inch shield?
Thanks for the reply. but I ask again; Since it is an actual HD shield, how do you like the 25 inch height? It seems a bit high. Do you look over the shield or through it as you rides. May I ask how tall / height you are for this 25 inch shield?
John M. I am 5'2", short. It is not too tall for me and protects my face from debris while riding. I see thru it and just over it with no problems. If it were shorter, bugs would hit my face and I wear a legal but very small beanie helmet and glasses, so I love it just the way it is.
Are the bags secure enough with the detachable mount that they don't bounce around? In other words, if you lift out from the bottom of the bag, do they move? Thanks!
John M. The air cleaner and the special muffler were bought through my HD dealership Red Rock Harley Davidson in Las Vegas, NV, USA. Because I bought a higher performance muffler, it demanded that I put on a higher performance air intake which is Screamin Eagle, and I had to pay for a special dynatune and the dyno tuning device. All four things had to go together or I could possibly damage my new engine. Everything was installed at the dealership. That's all I know.
John M. thanks. The air cleaner is a screaming eagle and it was professionally installed at the Harley dealership because I change my exhaust, and they also Dyno Tuned so it would not hurt the engine by changing both of those things. it is not advisable to just change your air cleaner/exhaust because it looks cool, because it affects the engine's performance big time. Good luck!
Éric Litalien Hi, thank you so much for your comments on the video. The color of my bike is Dodge Viper Race Yellow. As for short jaunts, like a couple hundred miles, it is great. When I tried to take it for a 2 day tour to No Cal, I blew apart a piston, while in the middle of the desert! thank God it was covered by warranty and I got a new engine within a couple weeks. Have not tried it again.
@@lianahudspeth2348 ...I have the same bike although mines a 16. These bikes are awesome for cruising around town and SHORT jaunts on the highway. Unfortunately they arent meant for long distance riding.
@@sirsloth8579 I agree. I finally bought a new bigger HD this year and love it! Now I can go wherever I want, as fast as I want. I got tired of being left behind, feeling like the bike was coming apart at high speeds, horrible front brakes, and problems I had with the trans. I bought a 2019 HD Street Bob and modified it!
Liana, LOVE the lemon yellow color!😁! Major style and profile! Great job in the design work. Doug
The lemon yellow color is AWESOME!😊🎉 That's the color, or a fuschia color is the way I'd like to do mine! 🏍️Doug
great looking bags
Thanks!

Hello (again) Liana, I've also noted the windshield on your bike. Is that an actual HD windshield for the XG750?
John M. Yes it is a HD quick release windshield. I love it!
Great video/review. Nice bike too. Are this bags leather or synthetic leather ?
Hi, thanks! I belive they are high quality synthetic leather. Check on Viking Bags website for item# LAM-100-L to be sure.
OK...... I read further down on the comments listing and answered my own question. Since it is an actual HD shield, how do you like the 25 inch height? May I ask how tall you are for this 25 inch shield?
Liana, Viking does not carry part# LAM-100-L but they do have LAM-100-P (not leather but painted black). Do you have a "Model Name"?
Way cool Josh!
Do you still have the bike?
No, I bought a new 2019 HD Street Bob after I outgrew that one.
@@lianahudspeth2348 - I will never sell my xg 750.. its the perfect bike for everyday use simple not too heavy and quick..
nice...ty for sharing

Thanks (again). I'm off to buy one...

they definitely don't move at all
Thanks for the reply! That's what I need to know.
Hiflyer No problem. Stay safe!
Hi (again) Liana, can you please provide information of your bike's air cleaner and it's cover?
John M. The air cleaner and the special muffler were bought through my HD dealership Red Rock Harley Davidson in Las Vegas, NV, USA.

Nice setup I'm looking to do the same. Also what is the air cleaner manufacturer and model number? it too also LOOKS GREAT !!
John M. thanks.
