For anyone interested here's a pic of my bike with the bags off compliments of the EZ Bracket system. I'm quite happy!

 

Glad you like them. I love mine. I can go from a bagger to a street bike in seconds.

 

Have had them on my Fatboy for over a year...

Work like a champ every day. Only thing I did was adjust the number of washers on the bottom bolts to get the bags to hang the way I liked.

 

One thing I noticed was the instructions said you could only use one of the existing holes on the top of the bags, I used both of the top holes on both bags & used (2) shims as instructed. On the left bag it required (8) washers at one of the lower locations & I believe (5) on the other lower. I ultimately ended up going with 2" ss bolts.
They turned out great & I love em!

 

I've got a set of heritage bags off of a 09 and im wondering where can I get these longer bolts from? and or can I get them at home depot or some where local? also did easy brackets send you enough bolts or did you have to aquire more bolts as well ?

 

Where can I get the bolts from? anywhere local like home depot? Did they send you enough of the shims ? (what is a shim anyway = washer?) Did you have to drill any extra holes on the bag?

 

I got my bolts from a local bolt vendor in the Seattle area called "Tacoma Screw". I opted for 2" stainless steel bolts which worked perfect. I also purchased 12+ washers as shims. Don't recall the exact number of washers installed but shimmed until they were even....

Ohh ok.. what is a Shim anyway?

 

Looks great. Now all you need is this. Just thought I'd spend some more of your money.

 

Actually I bought this instead
