Thanks. Yes, RPM installed the sissy bar kit and mounted the reflectors onto the rails. I guess I'm warming up to the idea of removing the reflectors. It's just that I won't have the brackets and bags mounted all the time and so initially I didn't want to remove the reflectors. Didn't want to do any more modifications than necessary, which is why I liked the Easy Bracket system., and too the bike stays as "original" as possible.
Anyway, thanks for the imput. Gives me some assurance as to options, which really aren't many. Manufacturer asked me to get back with them to let them know if the shim method worked. I don't think it will, because then the bolts will be too short. However, they said they'd send me longer bolts if that became an issue after installing chrome or stainless steel washers.
