How do you handle the conflict between your side-mount license plate and the bag? Do you ride with the plate folded in? I would think that would invite tickets.

Edit: Nevermind. I see from another thread that you got a different license plate mount.

Sorry for the stupid question but do I have to loosen the belt cover in order to mount this bag? I just want to know how much time to leave myself to put this on.

No, you don't have to loosen the belt.

I have a Leatherworks Solo Bag and the mounting straps are a bit thick; thus I had to loosen the belt guard.

“loosen the belt cover”
Nope, moved nothing, I used zip ties, worked great.
