You will have two holes from the previous RK tags. It may leave a mark if they have been used, but yours look new so there should be no fading. I sent you a PM that another forum member sent me when I put my RK custom bags on. Pretty easy to fab up a new plate. Let me know if you have any questions.

Just keep an eye and make sure the bags arent hitting your fender. I rode mine around several weeks before I took it in for paint to make sure I didnt have rubs. So far so good....except for that tight right hander I hit last week and scraped the bottom of my right bag.

Get a flat piece of titanium and install it under the bags, that way when you scrape you can send a crapload of sparks shooting everywhere

Got it! At first I thought that was your bag. Nice job though! I think I've seen some on here that are just plain with no plates on them at all and no marks. Did you remove your RK tags? Thanks for the info btw.

Finally got the bags put on. It was kind of a mission, but got it done. Tell me what you think? I'll get better pics when I take it outside.
