And although a lot of common sense and practicality went into these brackets, for $140 one expects the bolts not to rust within a couple weeks. I used these on the River Road Zip-off X-Large Slant Bags after reinforcing the backing with Lexan (see my review on that product for details) to mount them on my Honda Valkyrie. And I mounted them with the nut on that outside of the bag so the smooth, button cap bolt head was on the inside where my gear will be. Although more difficult to tighten on the bolt by the locking arm, a pair of needle-nose pliers work just fine. I used another reviewer's suggestion and placed a 2x4 on the exhaust pipe and then set the bag on the 2x4 to get the clearance I wanted--worked great. And I used the Cruiser Customizing tip of marking 1 bag, drilling the holes then placing the bags back-to-back against each other and marking the 2nd bag with the first.

Well, yes they did. So I built supports that mount to the Easy Brackets and curve under the bags. The 22ga. sheet metal is painted glossy blacka and securely suppports the soft bags as well as makes them stand up when off of the bike. Brackets are great! The instructions state to crank on the bolts on some Valkyrie models to make the threaded end of the bolt push through the backing of the mounted nut on the inside of the fender. I did this, although it felt very wrong, and it worked great. I can't believe this....I'm a guy, and I followed the instructions!!!! Review Details 3 out of 3 members found this review helpful.

The hardware is starting to rust after only 6 months. Stainless replacements would be a good idea. Review Details 4 out of 4 members found this review helpful. Was this review helpful to you?
