Thanks

Yes, with some mods.. Check out cyclevisions.com for a kit.
I had RK standard bags on my Heritage but had the mounts built using some stock HD parts.

Thanks guys. The RKC bags just seem to be a lot bigger than the leather ones on a Heritage - plus they might lock and open easier.

thanks again

Are they really bigger? I am getting my bags really saggy. And I am considering repairing them (commercial kit) or definitely changing them?

The bags on my 2001 Heritage are definately sagging -- but you know what -- my wife says she likes them like that -- looks more "old school Harley" -- me, I think I would use something like Gotsaggybags to stiffen them up. For now they just sit and sag but are totally usable. I even had Leatherlykes with studs and conchos on my Vstar and I liked them - sturdy and lockable.
