Has anyone modified HD Saddlebags to quicker release?
I have the HD saddlebags that bolt on to the bike through the quick release docking hardware for my sissy bar. I was thinking of mounting longer bolts from the inside of the fender out and putting a thin nut on to hold the sissybar docking bobbins in place. This would allow me to slide the saddlebags on to the end of the threaded bolts and two locking nuts inside the saddlebags. Not quick release but at least they can be removed without having to remove the docking bobbins each time. I could then put a nice dome nut on the end of the bolts for when the saddlebags are removed. Or is there a better solution other than fitting easy type brackets? I suppose I could even use some form of wing nuts inside the saddlebags. Anyone got any picture alternatives??
