Hi anyone know if you can put saddle bags on a strutless fender.i plan on going on a trip and could use the saddle bags....

 

Njo one?

 

Pics of your strutless fender?

 

You can use "throw over" saddlebags, aka "over the fender" saddlebags.

Here is an example:

There are many vendors of these saddlebags. A Google search can help you find them.

 

just bolt on the struts quick for the trip then take them off when you get back

 

If it's a true strutless fender, I'd be worried about stress cracks adding weight it isn't designed to carry.
If it's one of the "Strutless" RWD type fenders with welded on struts, it should handle the added weight.

 

This is the bike with the fender.....i dont want to put throw over saddle bags because they flap around when im going fast......do they make custom saddle bag mounting hardware?

 

That looks like one of the misnamed "strutless" fenders. It can handle the weight, but as you know the bags would tend to move.
You could drill through the struts to bolt the bags on and plug the holes when not running the bags.

Either button hole plugs found in the pluming fixture section or shorter bolts when running without the bags to hide the holes.

 

Have you thought about a LaRosa bag? Check these out; https://www.larosadesign.us/index.ph...290ad92ab7efe3

La Rosa bags seem nice until to you see them side by side by similar priced bags.
Then you saw you just wasted your money on them.
