Swing arm mouting system (cut, drilled, designed all by me and I was the first one on the forums to do this):
NO DOUBT YOU HAVE MADE A LOT OF THINGS "YOUR OWN" OR "1-OFF": AND NO DOUBT YOU HAVE A BAD *** BIKE. HOWEVER, NOT THAT IT MATTERS I MADE A BRACKET VERY SIMILAR TO YOURS WELL BEFORE I EVER SAW A SWING ARM BAG. I USED A REGULAR TOOL BAG AND IT CAME OUT GREAT. JUST SAYING...

ROOM FOR EVERYBODY OUT THERE HUH??
Well, if it doesn't matter, then why are you so upset, LOL?! If you made it "first", more power to you, would love to see pics. I'm not making money off this so I could care less if it was first in the world, it just happend to be the first one I saw on the forums and I've been around here a while. Not to burst your bubble, but there was a dude a long time ago (3 or 4 years) that gave me the inspiration for this. He used a tool bag as well. However, I made something specifically for a "swingarm bag" which IMO is nothing like a bracket for a tool bag. But, post some pics so we can see it. Talk is cheap, and typing on a key board is worth even less...
Chill out my NC friend, there's no special registry of mods that I know about and even though you or someone else may have done the same thing or something similar there's a good chance others don't know about it and consider their mod unique. It ain't a big deal unless YOU make it one.

Saw that bike at the Fat Daddy's bike show in Mansfield last fall. Me and Firman1501 (above) were parked next to it in line at the show. Nice bike. Think you had a red antique harley there too?
