Most hard saddlebag types have metal hinges and are formed from either a hard plastic or metal case. The mounting hardware that is needed to install the bag will simply fit your hog if you decide to go stock.

If the bag you choose is aftermarket, most manufacturers will include a universal mounting system that will fit most cruisers.
