Well I appreciate the car blast...
But alas, I don't have a car...
But I do have a springer....
Hence tge reason I want to know how it mounts..
Going off one of the other posters, said it helped a little...
Why do some of you feel that only you should have something, for only your reasons... I didn't blast you guys about your bikes... Or style... I like emm... But I did ask a legit question... As I don't like to or want to waste money!
Again... I do appreciatethe ideaof buying a car, but no thanks..

If anybody could tell me or let me know if this is possible on a springer, for a guy with no windshield, and not interested in buying a car, I'd be real interestedin listening and learning...
Thanks!!

I guess i didn't see who **** in your Weeties and yes I don't have a car either but I don't see an issue with strapping it to your bars. Yes the top of the springer will jab your blanket roll but doesn't seem like an issue. You just need two smaller straps to go through the belts to mount the roll to the bars.

A couple of friends came over one nite and i had it on the bike and they asked WTF is that for...? I didn't know what to say..lol...
thats funny...

These things only cost a couple bucks at the flea market. Got a couple for free when in Mexico. My dog and cats use them to sleep on. Work good for padding on the ground when working on your bike. More then just for looks.... lol

Dang....
Maybe mydol and maxi pads would be good....
All the cheerleaders in here...
Why is it so hard to say strap to bars?
I got a springer.... Looked like y'all strapped to top triple...

Trojan and charmin should sponsor too...
As proud as you are of yourself and bike, surrounded by the cheer team, you must walk around semi- hard. spillin crap out your mouth.

All I did was ask how...

Ok... Cheer team.... All in unison... Get back in here...

like others have said, just use leather straps about the size of a large zip tie.

im not saying that it will keep the wind out of your face, but it helpes change the direction of the wind a little bit to help with the parachuting that happens with apes. i love the wind in my face thats why i dont want a windshield, but i dont love the fact that sometimes it feels like im going to get blown off the back of my bike.
