When you removed the seat you had to remove the seat strap bracket. It is possible it was not put on correctly.

#1 Pull the bag off and check underneath to make sure the rubbers are still on.
#2 Loosen the strap bracket but don't remove.
#3 Put bag back on making sure it falls on the bottom rail in propper place.
#4 Put the pins back on locking postion
#5 Tighten the bracket holding the strap and pin.
