Best Saddlebags for Harley Dyna in 2025 | Fitment & Buying Guide
If you ride a Harley-Davidson® Dyna, you already know the bike is the perfect mix of raw power and real-world riding. The problem? Most saddlebags on the market don’t match the Dyna’s stance, shocks, exhaust layout, or aggressive lines. They sag, rub, burn on the pipe, or look like a universal “one-size-fits-none” bag.
At BAD&G Customs, we build saddlebags by hand in our small American leather shop using full-grain USA leather, heavy-duty hardware, and reinforced construction designed to outlast the bike. No mass production. No vinyl. No cheap-import shortcuts. Just premium American-made leather bags built one at a time for serious riders.

What Makes a Saddlebag “Perfect Fit” on a Dyna?
A real Dyna saddlebag has to work with the things that make a Dyna a Dyna:
- Rear shocks (clearance, movement, and bag angle)
- Exhaust routing (low, high, 2-into-1, big radius, etc.)
- Turn signals & rear fender arc (especially on certain year ranges)
- Mounting points that keep the bag tight with zero sag and no flop
If a bag isn’t designed for these details, it usually ends up leaning outward, rubbing the fender, or burning on the pipe. That’s why we build for secure mounting, clean lines, and real riding.
Harley Dyna Fitment Guide (1991–2017)
The Harley-Davidson® Dyna platform ran through the 2017 model year. In 2018, Harley moved many models to the Softail frame—so if you’re shopping “Dyna bags,” make sure your bike is actually a Dyna chassis.
Most common Dyna models our customers ride:
- FXD Super Glide
- FXDL Low Rider
- FXDB Street Bob
- FXDWG Wide Glide
- FXDF Fat Bob
- FXDC Super Glide Custom
- FXDX / FXDXT (performance/touring variants)
- FXDLS Low Rider S (Dyna years)
- FLD Switchback
Important: exhaust, shock height, and aftermarket parts can affect clearance. If your setup is custom, send us photos and we’ll help confirm fitment before you order.
Best Saddlebag Sizes for Harley Dyna
The “best” size depends on how you ride. Here’s the simplest way to choose:
1) Small Dyna Battery Bags
Best for: minimalist setups, daily essentials, clean look.
Holds: wallet, phone, gloves, small tool roll, keys, registration.
2) Medium Dyna Saddlebags
Best for: daily riding + weekend trips without overwhelming the bike.
Holds: essentials plus extra layers, small camera, basic rain gear, or a compact lock.
3) Large / Touring-Capable Dyna Bags
Best for: long rides, real storage, commuting, and riders who carry gear.
Note: large bags need proper structure and mounting to prevent sag and movement.
BAD&G bags are built with reinforced structure and secure mounting points so they don’t droop, lean out, or collapse after one season.
Bag Styles That Work Best on a Dyna
- Classic leather strap bags – timeless look, clean profile, strong closure
- Performance-inspired low-profile bags – built for aggressive stance and tight lines
- Weather-resistant options – for riders who get caught in real conditions
If you want the best look on a Dyna, the bag should follow the frame and fender arc—not hang like a universal pouch.
What to Avoid (Common Dyna Saddlebag Mistakes)
Most problems come from cheap materials and weak construction:
- Bag sag from thin panels and weak backing
- Exhaust burn from poor clearance planning
- Rubbing on the fender or shocks
- Rattling & vibration damage from loose mounting
- Thread rot and seam failure from low-grade stitching
- Color fade and cracking from cheap leather or coated “PU” material
Cheap bags may look okay for a month—then they start to collapse, flap, or fall apart. We build ours to stay tight, stable, and strong for years.
