TCMT 5ft Extended Hard Saddle Bags for Harley Touring - Stretched Look

In this review the TCMT 5' Extended Hard Saddle Bags are evaluated for riders who want a stretched, custom look and extra storage on Harley Touring bikes from the mid 1990s through 2013. The single biggest reason to consider these saddlebags is their 5' stretched profile that covers the muffler front to back, delivering the elongated appearance while adding usable capacity; the review focuses on fit, finish, and installation experience across common Touring models. The review draws on the product description and fit notes to assess value and practicality.

Key Features

• Stretched design: The saddlebags are stretched 5' longer than stock to cover the muffler and create a continuous stretched look that suits custom Touring styling.
• Material: Constructed from high quality ABS plastic to resist dents and deliver a smooth painted finish that holds up to road use.
• Fitment: Designed to fit 1993-2013 Harley Touring models including FLT, FLHT, FLHTCU, FLHRC, Road King, Road Glide, Street Glide, Electra Glide and Ultra-Classic for straightforward replacement.
• Finish options: Available in multiple finishes including Velocity Red Sunglo and Vivid Black with different latch styles to match a variety of factory paint schemes.
• Hardware and keys: Each side ships with stainless steel latches and three keys for both saddlebags, simplifying lock management and improving durability.
• Plug-and-play installation: No major adjustments required for most Touring frames and the bags reinstall back to the original position for a tidy fit.

Who It's For

The TCMT 5' Extended Hard Saddle Bags are best for Harley Touring owners who want the stretched custom appearance and additional storage capacity without extensive bodywork; they fit a wide range of 1993-2013 Touring models and appeal to riders upgrading from standard saddlebags. Enthusiasts who plan to paint-match or choose a painted finish will get the most visual benefit from the Velocity Red Sunglo and Vivid Black painted options.

These saddlebags are less appropriate for riders who need factory OEM electronic integration or exact OEM mounting hardware for non-standard conversions; riders with newer model-years beyond 2013 or those who insist on metal construction rather than ABS should consider other options or conversion brackets for Softail, Dyna and Sportster installs.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Stretched 5' profile delivers the desired custom look and covers the muffler area for a smooth side view.
• High quality ABS construction keeps weight reasonable while resisting minor impacts and chips.
• Comes with stainless steel latches and three keys for both bags, offering secure locking out of the box.
• Multiple finish choices allow matching to common factory colors for a clean appearance.

Cons

• May require conversion brackets for fitment on Softail, Dyna or Sportster models not originally listed, adding extra cost and fit work.
• ABS painted finish may not satisfy riders preferring metal saddlebags or OEM factory integration for electronics.
