Hey guys just bought a new Lick's solo bag....
I know it sounds stupid, but my bag doesnt quite look right on my bike, was wondering if anyone had instructions on the mounting location...ie what to wrap the straps around.

My bag didnt come with any instructions.

Maybe I did it wrong but it seemed the straps were hard to get sinched up as I thought they should be to make the bag tight on the bike.

Thanks

p.s. had the bike less than a month and have added short shots, the licks bag, and have a fuel pack and custom air cleaner on the way...lol

 

I didn't use the straps provided, 14" zip ties are the best as they allow you to fiddle them around in the nooks and crannies and you can cinch them super tight. + they take up no room inside your bag

I took my seat and battery side cover off and played with how I wanted the bag to line up which was another benefit to the zips as they are cheap and you can cut them off and start again til you get it just right.

 

awesome hadnt thought of that.
Thats the main problem with what I am seeing on my bike, it kind of looks saggy

 

Have a picture?

 

nope, dont have a digital camera wife has it at work.

 

I`m ordering one this winter for next season - sure would like some pic`s.

 

Why wait? There's a group buy right now over on the xl forums. Discounted price too...I just ordered one!

 

Search Lick's Solo Bag and look for SurbabanMom's thread. Lots of pics and the same discussion in regards to install.

I'll post a couple of pics later when its light out as well.

 

Thanks Wander I am checkin it out now.

 

I have noticed most people attach their bag on the fender support, wheras I wrapped mine around the frame.
Also I think what I have is the LaRosa bag...mine has 3 heavy leather straps to secure it to the bike....no velcro anywhere.
