Default Easy Brackets for Fatboy

I'm thinking about buying the Easy Brackets detachable hardware for my rigid mounted Fatboy styling saddlebags with my detachable backrest. My bike is an '02 model.

Has anyone installed this combination before? Any pics from installation, bolts on bike without the saddlebags mounted, or finished, would be appreciated!






Ride safe and have fun

I'm installing the Easy Brackets and Fox Creek Leather saddlebags Thursday night. I'll take pictures of the install in case it helps, it should be similar for the Fatboy.

The Easy Brackets part number I ordered was ST-R2DB. Since I have the detachable sissybar, I picked up docking hardware part #53932-03. There are two part #s for docking hardware, for use with and without saddlebags. The description on the Easy Brackets site was not specific, but I found at least one place referencing the part number I used (without saddlebags) so I went ahead and got it. I'll let you know if its the right one or not!
