Default Road King Question

My buddy's RK 1994 has the hard bags, his bags get a fine dust that looks and smells like fiberglas, has anybody else had this problem? It coats whatever is in the bags and it is really a PITA. I told him I would ask on this forum, he is too lazy to join.

The fiberglass is drying out. He might try painting the interior of the bags with some sort of sealant.

There's a ton of products to carpet inside your saddlebags.&nbsp\\; Easiest.&nbsp\\; Go to WalMart or Home Depot, buy some carpet, glue, make template out of butcher paper.&nbsp\\; Cut the carpet, and install.&nbsp\\; End of problem..

Rubberized undercoating, will stop it, and give a nice soft finish inside the bag.
