 |  lose the yoke
Got the Yamaha Roadliner soft leather bags. Wanted the fender rack but did not want the leather yoke across that big beautiful fender. Here's what I did: There's a clip on these bags that sits on the saddle bag support bars, this supports the bags weight. The back panel (side facing the tire) of the bags are plastic. You'll need 4- U bolts, 8-nuts, 8-washers, and 4-acorn nuts. Drill holes (to line up with U bolts) on either side of the verical support bars, an inch or so from the top of the bag.The bend in the U bolt wraps around the support bar so I put shrink wrap on the curved area to prevent any rattling. Place 1-nut and 1-washer on the U bolts.Insert them from the outside of bag to the inside. Thread and tighten remaining nut and bolts. Cap ends with acorn nuts for added protection against loosening (use lok-tite) and to protect your hands and gear from scratches. I get no vibration, no rattle. looks great!
