Bags are mounted!
After seeing Todd (SURFOR Chop) and Joe's (JRK####....sorry Joe can't remember the numbers) old style hard bags I had to get a set. I finished modding the brackets and bolted them up. I need to re-drill the rear holes and get them at the right angle but I like the results so far. The set I bought seem to be a bit smaller than theirs but I don't mind a bit. I'll paint them in the spring and move onto something else.

Hey Rick -
Great job ....
I must agree that your bags don't look quite as big ...
... wonder why ...???
I think that if you brought the rear of the bags up just a tad it would improve the look ....

p.s. By the way, for your reference: the opening on the top of the bags is 21" by 7" wide ... the base tapers down to about 19" by 5" ....

Thanks Todd, I plan on re-drilling to bring the rear up a little. I think the bags are old aftermarket knock-offs. They aren't fiberglass but they also don't fit into the plastic/ABS catagory. Maybe they were originally for a Sporty? Once they're painted and mounted properly they will look like they belong.

I just wanted to make sure you had that vision in your head tonight, inspiration for a dream maybe??? The Wal-Mart one was good, it was forwarded and appreciated by all.

The "King" is awesome. I absolutely love the ride and it looks great just sitting there too. The only mods to date are the A/C, slip on Rineharts, and a PC V. Thing runs like a raped ape!
