Default Saddle bag alignment

The left bag on my RK sits a little bit further forward than the right bag. It's just enough that when I try to open it, the edge hangs under the lip on the seat and makes it hard to open. I can fit my fingers between the rear of the left bag and the blinker but I can't on the right bag. Are the bags adjustable to where I can slide the left bag back a little?

Thanks in advance.

Use a 7/16 wrench to loose the two brackets on the fender strut that the bag pins go thru. Then, just slide the bag in the direction you need it to go and retighten the brackets.

Well, I had ordered a FLHS for the wife about 16 months before. They discontinued that model and replaced it with the RoaKing. When we went to pick it up she could not touch the ground because it was just a little taller. I decided to take it anyway and was going to lower it for her. As I left the dealer, a guy followed us out of the lot and at the first stoplight, offered me $4000 more than I paid for it. Since she still had her Sporty and I had a 93 Ultra and 92 Daytona Dyna at home, we decied to take the money and run. Bikes were hard to come by at that time and people were paying stupid money just to get one.
