Eck Posted April 13, 2009 Share #6 Posted April 13, 2009 Ok I give Eck, how are they attached or am I missing something:confused24: I'm slow but I'll catch on. If you look at the small left (small) bag, you can see a small chrome acorn nut on the rear edging of the leather bag where it touches the windshield. Each leather bag has two screws and two chrome acorn nuts (one on each rear edge side) that hold it to the windshield. I drilled small holes through the rear flap on the bags and then match drilled those holes through the windshield. I then inserted small allen head screws with flat washer from front side of windshield and through thw two holes in the bag and installed chrome acorn nut to match the chrome dome nuts ont eh forward flaps of the bags. People made comments that this will crack the windshield, but those bags have been on my bike for over a year and never cracked the windshield.. Of course, I didnt see how tight I could get them either......., but not one nut ever came loose either.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveP Posted April 15, 2009 Share #12 Posted April 15, 2009 I have the J&M Windshield bag on my '06 RSV. Though made for the Harley, it's been firmly attached for about 5,000 miles. Here's a link to my previous post with pictures of the bag installed, head on view and view from the rider's seat: http://www.venturerider.org/forum/sh...7&postcount=10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
