How do saddlebag supports work

Luggage manufacturers do not consider damage to saddlebags from contact with the exhaust as a product defect or warranty issue, it is viewed as user neglect. This is not always easy, but it gives you an idea how much space your motorcycle provides you for mounting saddlebags. Remember that regardless of the style, shape, and size saddlebags you want, the motorcycle you ride will dictate what you can use. The only manufacturer that addresses this situation is Nelson Rigg.

If you are looking for luggage and your motorcycle has an undertail or high mount exhaust, I strongly recommend you purchase Nelson Rigg Saddlebags along with their heat shields. Saddlebags on these motorcycles can and will get sucked into the rear wheel.

Dual sport, dual purpose, off road, or adventure style motorcycles are almost guaranteed to have an exhaust in a position that will make contact with the saddlebags. The docking posts and bolts are especially designed to work perfectly with your motorcycle, eliminating the hassles of adding spacing washers to either line up the docking posts or to achieve a good, tight fit. Easy Brackets are easy to install. They do not require the use of saddlebag support brackets.

Ther brackets are all metal with black powder coating for strength and durability. All hardware for mounting is provided. Easy Brackets are shipped with all the hardware necessary to mount them to your motorcycle with only basic tools. The kit comes with 4 stainless steel docking points which are mounted to your motorcycle fender rail.

They will replace the existing fender mounting bolts with longer bolts and the docking posts. The bracket is then mounted to the back of the saddlebags with the hardware provided. The bracket then slides onto the docking posts and locks into place. Close menu. Home About Products. All Products. Leather Saddlebags. Solo Bags. Luggage Rack Bags. Windshield Bags.
