Installed 4" stretched bags and bagger tail mounts. The bags seem to flare out quite a bit compared to the bikes I'm seeing on here and other places. Wondering what a good fix would be or if I may have done something wrong.

 

Can you adjust the brackets and draw them in.

 

Yeah, that does look a bit off. Where did you get those bags from? Did you contact them ?

 

I wasn't able to use the bagger tail piece that connects the two brackets and runs behind the tire inside the fender. With my stretched fender it won't fit. DirtBagBaggers told me that pulls the brackets in. So I need to fab up new piece I guess.

 

Sounds like you got a solution to your problem.

 

Looks like the top of the bag is tipped in much more than mine are. Just my .02. Maybe check how the top bracket is installed. I have the same setup as you and mine look different. I had to shim the top out fit with my heritage springer seat tho.

Idk if that helps or not. But I figured I'd attatch it for reference for you. Also you will definitely have to fab up a piece to crossover under the fender. I have a stretched fender too, and tried to go without it, and the bags bounced around way too much. Hit me up if you need anymore pics to look at my setup.

 

I think I figured it out after looking at your pic closer. The bottom rail bolts on BEHIND the frame at the foot pegs. Not on the front. That will kick the bottom out quite a bit. Hope that helps.

 

I am no help on the bags, no experience there. I would love to see and know what you have there for bars and risers though.

 

Looks like your tank emblems are a little off too

 

Yeah....well you win some you lose some. Maybe next time I'll get it right
