I’m currently running the v3 LeatherPros on my LRS. Just got a quick detach sissy bar setup and really not liking the “gap” it’s created between my fender and the bags. The company Boosted Brad makes quick detach mounting plates that offset this by raising the mounting points. Unfortunately, the m8’s are not in the plan for production. Anyone have any ideas to reduce this gap?

Ditch the detach model and get a permanent mount sissy bar is the only option I believe
