Bag guards on a bike with a tour pak

If you put guards around the bags,and you have a tour pak,can you still lift the bags out? Just lookin at it,it doesn't seem it could happen.

 

Take a look at my avatar, if your speaking of the bars around my bags then yes you can lift them out.

 

Cool,cuz they look like they'd hit the armrest's and go no further.

 

Nope, slide right out with room to spare.
