#904388 Jlb76 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1609 Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   I just bought some Roadking hard leather bags from a guy on CL. I think I got a pretty good deal for $75 (feel free to tell me if I didn't) Here's a pic of them. What is the best way to mount them. I looked in the archives and found a couple of good ideas for making some brackets.   Logged     Last Edit: 2015/07/13 21:04 By Jlb76.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #904389 jd750ace (User) Front toward enemy Platinum Boarder Posts: 18763 Re:Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   You got a hell of a deal. Those are very well made. I would think the HD hard bag brackets for the Roadie would work.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #904396 Crazyron1369 (User) The first scratch hurts the most. Gold Boarder Posts: 794 Re:Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   Softail brackets are the best way to mount. They just need a minor mod to the lower part of the mount. Someone had a post on here about it. If your creative you can figure it out yourself though.   Logged     I bought a one way ticket... going the wrong way! Ride on!

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1452 Re:Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   You stole those for $75...they usually go for around $200-250 on the low end on ebay, and they're usually in pretty rough shape. Good ones are usually in the $350 range. And DChopper brackets work well, in fact they've got a few pics of those bags mounted using their brackets on their website. www.dchoppercustoms.com   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #904482 roadstar375 (User) Expert Boarder Posts: 516 Re:Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   this was my setup prior to switching to hard bags. These are mounted using the Dchopper brackets. You got a hell of a deal for sure!!!   Logged     4FD35F1F-AD8B-45EF-9AA0-6463116A02D6 by Jason Dumas, on Flickr   The administrator has disabled public write access. #904484 shane8813 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2464 Re:Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   Dchopper brackets are the only way to go IMHO. Awesome deal. I thought about buying those same ones.   Logged     A government big enough to give you everything you want, is a government big enough to take away everything that you have.   The administrator has disabled public write access. #904491 Jonesie05 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2567 Re:Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   You can go with the cheapo softail brackets or you can go with the Dchopper Customs brackets that are solid and have filler panels. Heck of a steal on the bags!   Logged     Last Edit: 2015/07/14 09:41 By Jonesie05.   HARLEY BAG AND FAIRING BRACKETS NOW AVAILABLE ORDER YOUR BAGGER BRACKETS HERE My Road* Pics   The administrator has disabled public write access. #904498 BubbaKahuna (User) No reasonable excuse for what I am about to do. Platinum Boarder Posts: 4607 Re:Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   $75?!?! I wouldn't have paid more than $72 for them, you got screwed. I keed I keed. Great score. Dchopper or Softtail brackets. I ran softtail deluxe bags for about a year on mine, bolted right up with no brackets at all because the deluxe bags have bosses that work like spacers & the bolt holes are exactly the same. They fit right into the eyebrows or sissybar bracket. I couldn't load them heavy with no bottom brackets but for some spare gear they worked fine.   Logged     Last Edit: 2015/07/14 09:58 By BubbaKahuna.   This fits in here, right? I mean, I can make this fit in here ... right?   The administrator has disabled public write access. #904499 Jlb76 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 1609 Re:Roadking bags 2 Years, 7 Months ago   I checked out the Dchopper website and they said if the exhaust is above the axle they're brackets won't work and my 3 in. Hard krome pipes are above the axle   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
