Dowco Willie & Max Brass Monkey Brown Swingarm Bag - Softail or Triangulated Swingarms - 59777-08, 10.5 x 11.5 x 4.5

My third swing arm bag. This bag has amazing quality love the additional plastic liner against the actual swing arm; much better that leather against the metal of the bike.

Nice bag and fits my softail perfect.Pretty durable.All I know is its much cheaper than the Harley brand and quality seems about the same .

Excellent quality. I personally did not use the leather straps. I bought some 175lbs zip-ties for a cleaner more secure install.

I have a 2010 Softail Fat Boy and I needed something to carry a few items for my commute. This bag fits great on the bike and looks like it belongs there. The cost was very reasonable and it actually holds more than you would expect. I am able to pack my lunch with several cans of soda and close it securely. On weekends, my girlfriend can stash her small purse with our wallets and such in the bag when we ride together. The build of the bag is very good and I highly recommend it for someone that needs a little bit of room to carry items for a very reasonable cost.

Bag looks great, was easy to install. Craftsmanship seems top notch, and it came with protective strips for the pain on the swing arm. Fits really well on the 2020 Softail. Ill update as time goes on to how well it holds up. So far so good. Made in America which makes it even better.

This bag went on easily and fit perfectly. I got the one with the black buckles and it looks great on my 21 Softail Slim with the Denim paint scheme. I used the included leather straps and have no problem with them, although I can see how thick zip ties would work well too. The bag doesnt move and it actually holds more than I thought it would (I can keep a pair of safety goggles, reader glasses (both in hard cases) as well as a ball cap in there, without crushing the cap). No complaints.

The product page says this is incompatible with my 2021 Fat Bob 114, but I was able to attach to my swing arm with no issues. Overall it is an okay swing arm bag. If you compare it to the price of a similar HD made bags price it is worth the money. I like it enough to keep it. However the main factor behind that is another swing arm bag I wanted was out of stock. I was going to buy this one and the Hoodrat swing arm bag from Kuryakyn; Compare the two and return the one I liked less. There is some slack if you use the supplied synthetic leather straps to attach the bag. It is one of those situations where when you pull the strap through the buckle as tight as you can; The prong will line up between 2 holes and you cant quite make it to the tightest setting. I know others have been using 14 zip-ties and have had great success, which I may end up doing. Not primarily for a more snug mount but more to cut down on the clutter the straps create in side the bag its self. Once mounted the straps & buckles cause a decent amount of loss of storage capacity for such a small bag. Even with trimming the excess off the straps there is still a bit too much bulk for a bag with such low storage capacity. There are two main issues I have with this bag and both of them have to do with this hard plastic mold that lines the interior of this bag. The first is that plastic mold covers the two narrow sides (front end and rear end of the bike, but not the front side of the bag (clutch side of the bike). The back side of the bag (side near the swing arm) is entirely plastic mold with a plastic film on the exterior, not synthetic leather. The second issue is that the mold does not fully seat in the deepest corner. So there is a decent size gap between the plastic mold and the interior of the bag and this cuts out a good few square inches of storage capacity. This also creates a hassle when running your straps, as when you feed the strap it wants to go under the plastic molding. Takes some finesse to properly route in a space that you are working blind due to your hand obstructing your vision. After reading if you feel your main concern is that the product page shows it as incompatible with your soft tail; I say dont worry about that. I am willing to bet this will mount on any soft tail with a clutch side swing arm.

It just arrived today I was able to find a spot on where to install it. Seems sturdy, and looks neat on my bike. I like the size and the leather straps. Hope it last long

At a glance this is a good looking bag but it’s all down hill from there. Back side of the bag is a piece of hard plastic. Good for keeping the bag sturdy but not good for your paint. Not sure why they didn’t just put a plastic insert in the lining. The sides and bottom of the bag are sewn to the plastic backing and they don’t line up very well, it looks very shoddy. I do like the quick release buckles hidden behind the traditional metal buckles. Bag is smaller than I expected but it does fit well with the swing arm of my bike (2022 Harley Heritage Classic). The bag comes with 3 faux leather mounting straps that are stupid long. Aside from being way ridiculously long, the straps have metal buckles and the pin holes don’t go far enough down to get a tight fit on the swing arm. Straps and buckles take up a lot of space in this small bag. For the price, this bag should be made of leather, not have a slab of plastic for a back, and have some better craftsmanship. I do not recommend it. Only reason I gave it more than one star is because, in spite of everything, the bag does look pretty cool on my bike.

It sits straight up and doesnt take on water because of rollover.
