Re:Flag mounts for 6 1 Year ago

Sorry for the delay,
For my small flags, I just used the type that attach to a window... You know the plastic rod ones. To attach to the bike, I used a piece of aluminum angle and two U bolts to hold it to the sissy bar. Then I put the flags on the aluminum and put a screw into each side to make sure they stay on.
I ran two, one higher up for the American flag, and a lower one for my USN flag on one side and a POW/MIA flag on the other side.

OK, last one, but if you want more, PM me. It was really easy to make with the angle and U-bolts. Plus the window mount flags are fairly inexpensive and easily replaced if you wear one out or loose one. With just 2 screws holding each flag on, you can remove them fairly quick too. I forgot, it's pretty cheap to make too. 3' pieces of 3/4" aluminum angle was about $4. the U-bolts (need 4) were about $1 each. Then just the cost of the flags, I got good ones from "Fly me Flag" in Green Bay.

There are several good ideas on flag mounting here. Just a matter of taste and affordability, permanent or temporary.

The angle iron was actually pretty easy to do, but the U-bolts I bought were too long so after I put them on I had to cut them down so they didn't stick out too far & look funny.
