FYI, take off the straps and use zip ties. The straps will sag and never stay tight, zips work way better IMO........speaking from experience.

Ya I was looking at them and they look like they wouldn't tighten up small enough but agreed, will use the zip ties-Thanks.

They look great! Be sure to show us some photos when you have them actually mounted up. We'd love to feature your bike as well.

Thanks so much for the kind words, feel free to contact us if you have any other questions. We're in the process of developing a new solo bag so also if you have any suggestions... we'll be happy to take that into consideration. Thanks!

OK will do. Been raining here for a few days and I'll get to mounting it soon.

Nice bag. Once you get it mounted please let us know if retaining passenger peg will be possible (if extended of course)!

I have Harley's own version of that swingarm bag, which is essentially the same thing (minus the way it attaches).

There is NO way to utilize that passenger peg when running these swingarm bags...

Just holding the bag up to the bike w/the peg down. The peg sticks out from the bad about two inches. Can one out an extension on it, yes.
Will post pics when I have it mounted. Been raining a lot and couldn't get the bike out of the wooden shed to work with the straps.
