Easy Off Saddlebag Mounting System
Our
saddlebags go on and off by securing the saddlebags with wing nuts. The
wing nuts are simple to use and securely mount the saddlebags to the
cycle. Below are the instructions of how to mount the saddlebags to the
bike using the Easy Off brackets. The Easy Off Saddlebag Mounting System is manufactured specifically for each model motorcycle. The system is not universal.
Instructions:
1. Remove one of the two bolts in the rear fender strut. Replace the factory bolt with our threaded stud.
2. Screw
in our stud into the fender strut. (For 2005 and earlier
Harley-Davidson's slide the stud through the strut and turn the stud
into a nut inside the fender.)
3. Slide one tube of our “tubed bag support” onto the stud and secure with a washer and then a nut.
4. Bolt up the other tube.
5. Tighten the lower two acorn nuts at the bottom of the side rods.
6. Hold
up the saddlebag against the studs making sure the bag is level and at
least 1.5” above the muffler and mark where the studs hit the bag.
7.
Drill out the bag’s back at the stud’s mark on the back of the
saddlebag first using a ¼” or so pilot bit. Then enlarge the hole
depending if the stud is a 8mm, 10mm or 3/8th diameter.
8. Slide on a washer to the two studs. Slide on the saddlebag to the the studs.
9. Tighten up the saddlebags on the studs with a washer and a wingnut.
The "Instructions" may be long, but are really easy to follow.
