This quality leather bag is designed to go between your battery box and rear shock for your Harley Davidson Sportster (years 2004 and up). It is made with a very thick 12 ounce veg tanned herman oak leather. Because of the special way that the front and back are sewn together as one piece, it is a lot less likely that it will ever lose its shape. Some bags are made with reinforcements to bolster up their thin leather, not so with this bag! This leather is so thick that it does not need any reinforcement, a huge step up from most Harley-made bags that are made of cheap vinyl.

The Rich Phillips Cycles Sportster Biker Bag is sealed with a beeswax based waterproofer, "Aussie Leather Conditioner". It is used to bring out the richness in the grain and color.
