He'll probably chime in and help you out. Are you planning on using the stock fender?   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #589124 davej (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 18167 Re:Harley hard bag mounting question 5 Years ago   If you want to use OEM saddlebag brackets mount a pc of hollow tube steel or aluminum on the bottom of the OEM bracket. It sits up into the recess on the bottom of the HD bag (I used a pc of aluminum cut from an old pair of crutches)make sure the rubber mounts are in place inside the recess.   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #589126 davej (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 18167 Re:Harley hard bag mounting question 5 Years ago   then redrill the holes in the bags to line up with the threaded OEM bracket mounts and plug the old holes with a cap purchased from hardware. then mount them just that easy   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #589127 Jonesie05 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2567 Re:Harley hard bag mounting question 5 Years ago   Send a PM to dchopper73.

But you can find them on Ebay or pinwall cycle usually under $100 a set. The dealer wants $137 for one of them and $164 for the other.   Logged     dave   The administrator has disabled public write access. #589984 bastard3 (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 262 Re:Harley hard bag mounting question 5 Years ago   Thanks, no joke, those things aren't cheap. In the end though they are a hell of a lot cheaper than those aftermarket mounts.   Logged     [img size=150][/img]   The administrator has disabled public write access. #590012 cschmelzer (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 106 Re:Harley hard bag mounting question 5 Years ago   I ended up getting ahold Of dennis and got his awesome mounts   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #870370 jwturnerjr (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 1 Re:Harley hard bag mounting question 2 Years, 11 Months ago   Can I ask how you made the lowering brackets for your saddlebags?   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access.
