Default Saddle bag buckles
Has anybody in here changed their buckles on saddlebags with quick disconnect ones? Curious if is possible to do without an act of congress to reinvent the wheel too much.

Those came on a set of bags I picked up once , couple years use and the plastic gets weak so a heads up if you do make them changeable without major surgery .

I ordered my bags the other day and they are buckles I am not sure if I will like them or not. I am hoping that it won't be that much of an issue to open them with regular buckles.

Easy fix on the Heritage. I broke them several times over the years and ordering them from the dealer was the worst part.
