You can go on line and get a hard mount dead creek cycle make one or you can make your own like alot of people. Home Depot or Lowes will have everything you need.

Great solution to any ware issues on the swing arm.
My Viking swing arm bag came with mounting straps.
I kept it simple by drilling holes in the bag and used zip
ties to mount it it the bike.
I ordered saddlebags so I won't be needing the solo bag.

Thanks for all the info guys. I just ordered my Viking solo bag since it was on sale.. Thought I would give it a try since I want to try and scrape a couple more bucks together and throw in a drop kit fender bib and tank lift before bike week. Idk if I can get them all done but I'm hoping I can.
I have the garage leathers bag. Hands down the highest quality bag out there, but it has the high price too. Hard mounted mine on a backer plate. Two years and no signs of wear. It'll hold a sweatshirt, spare glasses, small tool roll, smokes, gum, phone and maybe a ball cap.
Can't seem to find any good pics of it on the bike, but here's one of the bag with the backer plate insert I made for it.
