#392208 Rubber Duck (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 193 Saddlebag/Ghost bracket question 11 Months ago   Just bought a set of Road King custom leather covered hard bags and was wondering if I could use ghost brackets or would they not support them enough?I also have the brackets from my stock hard bags.Are they hard to modify to fit the harley bags? Anyone have a better way to mount them?

They really put the bags 3 to 3.5 inches away from the fender and flopped around.   Logged     My Garage Wind Therapy Riders Patriot Guard Riders May you always be in the Wind and May She Always Smile upon you   The administrator has disabled public write access. #392374 Rubber Duck (User) Junior Boarder Posts: 193 Re:Saddlebag/Ghost bracket question 11 Months ago   Ok thanks.
