Default Willie & Max Hard Mount Bags

Has anyone had experience with Willie & Max's mounting system for fixed mounting?

I can't find any removables that don't make the bags hang an inch or more away from the side of the bike, so I'm going with fixed mount.

Thanks.

To clarify my question, is this mounting system any good? Easy to install, secure?

Why don't you give the easy brackets a go they work great and work on most sadlebags soft or hard.
I am happy with mine wouldn't have a bike without them now.

Good question. I have had Easy Brackets in the past and they did work great, but there was a big gap between the bike and the bags that I do not like. Plus I rarely took them off.

Can someone tell meif the strange looking mounting hardware from Willie & Max is any good?

Thanks.
