Default Side benefit of brukus saddlebag secure

Not that it bothered me at all, but since installing the brukus saddlebag bolts, my bags ain't got the heebie jeebies like they use to. They still shake, but they don't look like they are about to fall off. I know, I could saved some coin at Lowes or home Depot, but this kit works well, all inclusive, and is a good design.

We have actually had a lot of customers say that installing the SaddlebagSecure took care of the bags rattling on the brackets. Made them more solid. Same feedback about the ShieldShackles for the detachable windshields.

Appreciate you posting this.

And also, we have put our Free Shipping back on through Father's Day for all our products shipped within the U.S.

And just a reminder that we offer a HDForums discount - the link is in my signature.

Thanks again!

Yea, but why not support the business that puts the pieces together for you and you just have to click? For the small amount of coin we are talking about here it makes sense to just buy the kit... IMO of course.

That's exactly what I did, and no regrets!

I bought the saddlebag secure kit along with the seat secure a couple years ago....
Yeah I know, I could have saved maybe $20 by going to Lowe's / Homer Depot, or your favorite family hardware store and buying similar equipment.
I will support a sponsor, who in turn helps keep this forum's 'free admission'....

Dang it! Wish I had known that. Was still a good deal without the discount though.

Just curious.

Even with the bags locked are they are easy to steal?
