leather bags protection
I noticed on my 09 RKC evertime i open the bags they bump into the docking hardware for the riders detach back rest...is there a company that offers something like a cover that will stretch over the top to act as a barrier?...im sure im not the first to complain of this...but when i did a search a million things popped up but what im looking for...

what my concern is the docking studs bump the top of the bag lid, its causing some gouging on the top of the bag when i open it...lid rests on the docking hardware....i need something that will protect top of the bags when they are open...

From:
if it hits on the top lid edge inside(tire side)..specifically towards the back.
consider placement of a washer/ers on the bag arm/brace(frame side) so that bracket for the bag will be pushed just a little further out...if the bag is pushed further out it should rub much less or non when open....and yes you will see a bit more empty space between fender and bag when looking at bike from behind.
