| | | | | | | As Seen in American Bagger
| | | Trask Performances custom motorcycle was the
featured bike in the April 2008 issue of American
Bagger. The response was so good, that the company
decided to offer two products from the bike:
the headlight guard and the extended hard bags.
The wire mesh guard snaps into the front fairing
of Road Glide models. It comes powder-coated
black or chromed.
The fiberglass bags reportedly offer substantially
more storage space than stock. They use the
stock lids, latches and lid mounting hardware.
They can be ordered without cutouts or with
cutouts for either dual or single pipes. The bags
have a finish that ready for prep and pain. They
bolt on to FL models.
Value of the products: headlight protection,
more storage space and, of course, looks.
Suggested initial order: No minimum. Dealer
margin: TBA (headlight guard); 12.5 percent
(bags). Marketing tips: Obtain a copy or reprint
of the American Bagger article. Contact:
