And of course the HD site doesn't give the size of bags other than cubic inches. Why does everything have to be so hard? The HD site says the bags I ordered do not require relocating of T/S. But now I assume that means if they are hard mounted? If I call Easy Brackets perhaps they can tell me if I need to relocate T/S or not?

 

Very true. LoL....

The 90388-04 "quick disconnect bags" that I have aren't as large as some I've seen, but they look good on the bike, and hold quite a bit more than I thought.... Enough room in them that I can roll up and fit a mid-weight leather jacket and vest in one bag.

 

How about a link to Bubba's?

 

cyclevisions barebacks! they were phenomenal. i have since sold them and the bags because i bought a oad king, but they were exceptional.

 

Great, another choice. Thanks, I'll call them tomorrow. I should have my bags by the end of this coming week. Again, I'd really like to NOT have to change my turn signals. Perhaps the barebacks will work?!

 

I tried a set of the Easy Brackets and they made my bags stick out like a sore thumb...sent em back. By design the EB's add an offset of like 5 or 6 inches - I don't understand why they make them like that [:'(] ..I think the bubbas are a lot cleaner looking.

Here is my reason for not getting bubba's.
The whole idea of having a quick-release system on a road trip is
that you can take the bags off, and into the motel room with you
like two suitcases. bubba's has that support bracket sticking out
that I think, is connected to the bags?

 

These Supports?

 

I went through the same thing after I ordered from Bubba's a few months ago. After about a week of calling I finally got through. When the Mounts arrived I had an issue with one of the Spools since I orderd the Detachable version. I called and got through right away and had a replacement Spool in two days.

They were going through some type of reorg but I thought they would be back to normal by now.

They are a small home based operation I think but are good to work with once you make contact.

I think he lowered his prices as well.
