I remember seeing a 2000 Gilroy Indian Chief in thurqoise and cream and it had a pair of hard bags that looked just like these. Unfortunatly that was back around 2001 and long before I purchased my Drifter. I think those are real and not photoshoped.

You might be right in that they might be Photoshop job after looking closer. But I really like the look.  I too would have to save my change for a set of those.

That is definately what I would like to see on mine. Nice find Jimbo.... Maybe I should search for hard bags for an Indian, I wish I could find the source of that pic get ahold of that Drifter owner? I did get an old batwing fairing on eBay for 60 bucks shipped. I am going to have to fashion some mounting hardware, but for a fiberglass fairing 60 was a good price for me.

i saw this photo on the Drifter Yahoo site of a set of hard bags that apear to be styled exactly like the stock rear fender.  Not sure if this was the real thing of a photoshop job but they look darn good.

As usual you have saved me many dollars. I found an old shovelhead fairing on Ebay. Shipped and en route for less than 72.00. Many thanks!

Yeah, there are a couple of sources for bat wing fairings that will fit. A few folks have adapted harley bat wings onto their's as well. Look over on the web site, there is info there as well... both the Accessories area and the mods/tips area.
