Title: saddle bags
Post by franch on 08/22/06 at 09:31:40

i noticed that some saddle bags are throw over and some go under the rear seat and others are " bolt on "

how do bolt ons attach to brackets ?

i have a pair of thro overs.converted to "hard" mount..
theyre river road slant style,came with plastic that runs inside up the front and back and across the bottom(helps in shape retention) used cardboard to trace the back after a few trys got it to fit just so then taped it to a double sheet(one for each bag) of 1/8" plywood ,jig sawed and sanded to fit ..used 3/8" 1 hole conduit (squeezed to fit)straps, washers,screws and nuts to attach to saddle bag bars ,works great i have yokes tucked and tyed down out of the way..thinking about cutting them off
