Santoro Fabworx Bag Guards install on the 2019 Road Glide Special

I installed new Santoro Fabworx, "Not Yo Daddy's Bag Guards", on my 2019 Road Glide Special. As usual my installs are done in my driveway, and I'm racing the random pop-up Florida rain. Rather than cutting my old bag supports, to fit the new bag guards, I used parts from the H.D. parts catalog....
Replacement bag support part numbers:
2014 up, from HD catalog, # 90200504. # 90200505
The new bag guards are a great product, and customer service was good as well. Quick responses from the small crew at Santoro Fabworx in California

Got a goal of seeing all your travels. Love those trips.

Been running these on my 16 performance bagger build streetglide for a few years now. Still dig em. Only issue I had is the lower mount tab for the bars would bang into the swingarm on the first set I bought on full bump due to the mount tab hanging way down (13 " Progressives) Mike ground down the tab and I put another powdercoated swingarm on. 2nd time it gave some more clearance, but still had some contact issues at full bump. Looks like those have the same droopy tabs, keep an eye on em. Ive since gone with 14" Ohlins and problem gone (longer shock length). Seemed to be more the right side than left. Didnt buy the separate HD lowers. Just hit em with a grinder and cut em off. No need to have to spend $$ to buy a separate set. Super quick and easy to trim the ones you have. Just my two cents. Good video!

[@michaelpowers4452]

thank you for the demo, of all crash bars these look like they provide the best protection.

[@abelombrana4225]

Waiting for mine to arrive. Can’t wait!

Hey Lucky, Finally got my Santoro bag guards installed today on my 2019 CVO Road Glide. I am extremely pleased with the result and as you stated it is a great product and I was inspired to do this job by your video. I had to wait 3 months to get the tube assembly's from HD due to the virus, but it's finally complete. Thanks and take care...….

Awesome Larry 👍👍 I love mine too

Hi, Mike here from Santorofabworx, awesome Job. Thank you 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

Hey Mike, great product, I’ll make a second video for the front crash bar in the near future

[@TomGlander]

Very clear video. Best I've seen on the subject.

[@shanecoker8566]

I like these, never seen any with sliders for a Harley.

[@LuckysLair]

They also have "sliders" that look like skateboard wheels LoL

[@LuckysLair]

I have a front crash bar I haven't installed yet, tune in later for that one

[@umpire5612]

Who are you & what have you done w/ my kid!? Well done (no 4-letter words!). The driveway superintendant musta been sleeping on the job 😸Like the red pop!

[@LuckysLair]

I edit all that sh*t out

[@verlinbattle2132]

good idea - used frame sliders on crotch rocket .........

[@larrypontelandolfo9304]

Great video Lucky, I am considering these for my Road Glide but was wondering if you have had a passenger on since the install, and if the guards interfere at all with the back of their legs like the old Harley guards did?.. Any info would be helpful. Thanks, and keep up the good work...

[@LuckysLair]

I wondered the same thing, so I sat on the back after the install. It seemed like it would be okay for a rider. Keep in mind I am 6 ft tall with a 32" inseam, but I'd guess it would be okay for shorter folks

[@larrypontelandolfo9304]

@@LuckysLairThanks for the quick and sincere response, it is much appreciated... I think I'll give them a try as I do like the look... Keep the great video's coming.....Larry P.

[@twizzaj2625]

On the Harley Davidson website, I found the rear saddlebag guards under part #90200788

[@patc5599]

Lucky.. Good Video.. have a question, could you have just cut the bar and slide new crash bar over and not take apart the back end??

[@LuckysLair]

Yep, you can do that too.

[@adammcqueen6127]

Hey there, I'm looking at a set of these for my 2020 RG. I'm curious if you've noticed that your slow speed turning radius has decreased with these when you still had the stock engine guard? I'm trying to decide between these and the OEM bag guards from Harley. I like the look of these, but I don't want to be worried about scraping in every Uturn.

[@LuckysLair]

I haven’t had any issues with tight turns or U-turns. I occasionally go to a parking lot and practice my slow speed maneuvering without any issues. Hope this helps, thanks for watching 😎👍

[@adammcqueen6127]

@@LuckysLair Sounds good, thanks man. Hope to catch you at Daytona someday!

[@josephlardino3250]

Nice bag guards. Also, what front wheel fender is that?

[@LuckysLair]

It's a "wrapped" front fender from the Harley parts catalog under "custom paint" I think

[@evil_musclemuscled3814]

Was there any clearance problems with the side panels

[@dougthomas2123]

Did you notice the sliders are not the same length? Trying to figure out which ones go low, and which ones go on top. If you know, can you let me know?

[@LuckysLair]

I just walked out and measured em. I put the 2 1/2" inch long sliders down low and the 2" up high.

[@taconasty]

Hey someone told me you needed to do some minor modifications to fit those is that true? looks really good by the way.

[@LuckysLair]

You can either cut the stock bag supports so they'll slip into the Santoro parts, or you can order Harley catalog parts that'll work the same way. I chose the Harley parts, the part numbers are listed about two minutes into the video, and they're seen as the first parts I lay out in the beginning of the video. The replacement parts I ordered are as follows: P/N 90200504 and P/N 90200505, the left and right bag supports. I ordered them thru my local Harley Dealers parts desk....rather than cut my original stock parts.

[@taconasty]

Ahhhh ok so that’s what they meant ... I was under the assumption that it was some body parts and honestly that’s why I never pulled the plug on buying this part.. hey man thank a lot for clearing that up greatly appreciated...

[@taconasty]

Who did you order it thru and how much if you don’t mind me asking?

[@LuckysLair]

@@taconasty I ordered the bag guards directly from the Santoro Fabworx website, and the Harley parts from the parts desk at Rossmeyers Harley Davidson at Destination Daytona

[@LuckysLair]

$390 for the bag guard, and I think the harley parts were around $150-ish???

[@ggrogue]

I went online to look up their crash bars. It says that for roadglide /street glide you have to cut 4” off the bikes saddlebags guard. I didn’t see that in your video can someone please help me w this ?? Ty in advance

[@LuckysLair]

Hey thanks for watching. About two minutes into the video there’s a couple part numbers on the screen. Those are Harley Davidson part numbers for the two bag supports I used. They’re called “2014 & Up” bag supports, they’re basically like the stock supports except with the front mounting bracket already removed. Before that in the video you’ll see the two parts as I laid out all the required stuff on the tarp. At about the 5:50 mark in the video you’ll see me slipping the supports into the crash bar. I didn’t want to risk screwing up the stock part by cutting it up, and I’m in Florida so rusting is a concern after chopping up the part....so I bought the parts that are on the screen and in the description

[@harleysguitars7850]

Where did you get the bag supports that work with the crash bars?

[@LuckysLair]

I ordered them from the local dealership using the part numbers in the video. Or you can cut the existing ones that came with the bike

[@harleysguitars7850]

@@LuckysLair did you order full length and cut?

[@LuckysLair]

@@harleysguitars7850 no the set I ordered a were manufactured precut. I removed and saved my stock supports

[@LUCKY-mo5ex]

How long did it take you to get your bars once your ordered them?

[@LuckysLair]

It’s been 3 years since I installed them, however I don’t remember it taking a long time to have my order delivered
