i took my bags off my 2K Heritage to do some cleaning and noticed stress cracks at the inside attachment points. Only on one side. Anyone had this happen? Is there a fix?
It could be due to over tightening. In any case, after you repair the cracks try using bonded fenner washers - large washers with a rubber backing and it shouldn't happen again. Home Deep and Lowes have them.
I had a set of HD bags with the plastic backs that bolted to the bike/bracket on my 99 fatboy a they were cracked too...Mine came that way I just used some epoxy an fender bolts. just scuff it up some it has something to bond to an don't over tighten when reinstalling.
