Something like this:

I thought about doing that but was afraid the pressure would eventually damage the saddle bag. So I took the flag off the plastic mast and bought a aluminum mast for it and attached it to my luggage rack.. Originally wanted one for PGR missions, but fly it all the time now. See pic below. I took the white disc at the top of the plastic mast, slid if over the aluminum mast, and it's held up with a rubber o-ring. This keeps the flag at the top of the mast.

I go this route. Bought the flags from Rambling Pride, then with some old horn brackets I found laying around, I fabricated this simple mount that anyone can make with a drill bit:

One tip...use a lock washer between the antenna and the bracket when you screw the antenna back down tight. The lock washer keeps it snug. Without a lock washer, it will get loose on ya.

I was never a fan of the flag look on a harley flapping around.. always thought it made the bike look cheap..
