RE: baggers beware!!
The stealing of hard bags has been discussed before. Scared me enough to do this... I ran a button head allen bolt through the bag and have a nylock nut on it inside plus a different size head acorn nut on top of that. If you attempt to turn from outside, it will just spin. The bracket that attaches to the bike also has a button head allen bolt installed with loctite red. You can get my bags if you want... it will take ya a while though IF you even have the right tools. Screwdriver wont cut it in my case.

This is no different than a thief stealing parts off a car, not all that common but it does happen. My defense was to up my insurance policy to actual replacement value of the bike, only ran $200 more a year to insure an extra $15k in parts and accessories. I am gonna just ride it and hope for the best, but if the bike, or any parts disappear, it is covered.
