Since I started this tread, I thought I drop in from time to time to update those of you who have helped me with your candid advice.
I just finished attaching the sissy bar with rack, as well as easy brackets. Now, I'm just waiting for my Saddlemen Drifter Jumbo Slant bags to arrive so I can attach them.
On another thread, I saw that someone had used aircraft aluminum (I believe that's the material) to provide more stability for the saddlebags--so that the bags don't rub against the shocks and/or the wheel.
Although, I must admit.... after affixing the sissy bar, I think it has taken away the drag look of the bike. Although, it's not too much of a pain to remove the whole rack.... it appears that I have to switch out four of the bolts (i.e., replace sissy bar bolts with original bolts).
What do you guys think about what modifications I've just made? Any comments? Questions? I welcome any and all feedback from those who have gone down my rode, and those who are thinking about doing what I did.
Shiny side up everybody!
Jason
