Yes they just strap on to the swingarm but if you choose to mount them like that use some sort of protection between you swingarm and the leather straps. Other wise the leather straps will wear through your paint. I use a piece of 3M clear film and have had no paint issues.

Deadcreek Cycles might be even thicker. I was going to get a Licks. But DC has a mounting bracket and a nice insert with a pocket. Many bags are stitched. DC uses revits.

Checkout Deadcreek Cycle website. I can not attach a pic at the moment. Seems the mobile app does not have that feature.

Bill Gates house cost around $120 million. If you look at the cost of it compared to his wealth he only spent about $20 bucks on it. lol.
I look at my Harley and try to figure how the cost adds up to so much and cant at first but then I can when I ride it. The bag is worth the money if you can afford it.

Gonna have to replace my Leatherworks. After 6 years of being dragged through corners its finally given up. The Dead Creek looks nice, and I like the mounting bracket. Do they do custom stitching?
