Grzly, Marsh and Moggsy - your bikes are cool. Thanks for the ideas.

The white accents and the white walls really set that bike apart! Very, very nice!!

 

V&H softail duals with fishtails and quiet baffles on my scoot.

 

Here is a dumb question for Heritage owners !!!!

I recently got docking hardware for my saddlebags which moves the saddlebags out a bit and enabled me to put bullet indicators.Now do i need to get detachable sideplates for the sissy bar ??? Doesnt look like they will fit with the normal non-detachable sideplate.

Cheers

 

Moggsy, my Harley dealer set me up with a detachable sissy bar along with detachable saddle bag docking hardware. They used BareBack hardware I believe.

yes , you will need the sideplates. BTW did you et the quick release system for the saddlebags . If so 2 questions - once off does this docking bolts stick out ( "ugly like " ) and where did you get it.

Thanks for that.Looks like i better get some detachable sideplates.Very rarely use the sissy bar but it would be good to have if needed.
Grzly,no i dont have the quick release system.Have heard Bubbas do a decent quick release system but have not gone down this road yet.When the bags are off i just put the fender bolts back on so they dont stick out.Only use the docking hardware,which is the H-D ones so i could run the bullet indicators on the rear.

 

same here - taken bags off for the time being . the missus called them the "lost property bins" - every time i went out riding with mates I always came back with some of their crap as I was the only one with bags. the upside is that I have some really neat t-shirts from poker runs, belts , and other stuff which remains unclaimed.

 

Most of the time i have no bags on but as usual when you need them you dont have them on.Got a ride planned up north doing Thunderbolts Way and the Oxley for a few days so the bags,screen and rider backrestare going on.Just hope bloody rain goes away for a while but i suppose we do need it.

 

rain , rain , rain for next few months if the long term forecast is to be believed. I desparately need boots that are waterproof.
