Default bag mounting bolt covers

Thanks for the feed back on the heat shield. All sugestions were better than the metal shield I was looking at.

Now I am looking for some kind of covers for the stock bag mounting bolts on a Heritage, to use when the bags are off the bike. At this point I didn't want to use any of the quick mounting systems.

Thanks

I'm not aware of any covers for the stock saddlebag mounting bolts on a Heritage. Those bolts are too long. What most will do is remove the stock bolts and screw shorter bolts in their place.

These are what I use on my Heritage but I rarely ride without the bags.

Thanks for the reply. That's kind of what I thought. My bags are at Boss Bags now and I was looking for something to dress up the bolts.

I just took mine out while I don't have the bags on. I still have 2 bolts on each side holding the fender in place. I will most likely pick up a bolt set off of ebay in the near future.
