Default Give me some feed back. Please!

I've developed a flag holder to bolt directly to the rear of most touring models. It uses original factory bolt holes, no drilling involved. Designed for one, two, or three flags up to 3' x 5' in size. Looks good too. I have been road testing this unit for about a year now and have had no problems with it at city or highway speeds. It really shows your patriotism or what ever else you want to dispaly and it gets you noticed as well. The more awareness on the highway, the better I like it.
I am currently undergoing patent legalities, which takes forever, but I would like to know how much interest there might be before I do a lot of production. Any input will be greatly appreciated.
Thankyou.
Dan.

If this looks good and is fuctional, I would suspect that you would have high interest. HD riders are always trying to figure out ways to attach flags to their bikes.

If you have a patent pending so that your design is protected, I would like to see a pic. of what you've got. If you are not to that stage yet, do not posts pictures publically.

Regards,

Bill

Sounds like a good idea ... I did see some flag holders for larger size flags in a local HD shop ... I'd like to see some pics as well ....

We need a picture and a price before committing to any. I am looking for some type of flag holder. How soon can you get us a picture? Are they aluminum or steel?

Oh the rear where? Fender, rack or tourpak. (remember guys, I'm still pretty much a newbie.)

And yes, you have my interest.

Hello Mullenix53.
The flag holder sounds like a good idea. What kind of metal are you making it out of? Are you going to have it chromed? Could this holder also be used to hold an antenna?
