Dickin around in the garage again

My wife had a set of saddlebags made over the summer and stashed em away for a christmas gift.....well headed into the garage today and decided to give em a try and see how they looked. I think it fits the bike and looks pretty good, I used some stainless u-bolts around the frame to mount the bag....can have the bag off in just a few minutes.






After mounting one of the bags..I stashed the other in the attic..always nice to have a spare!

Moved over to the other side of the bike and decided to change the look of my air cleaner, popped in a few more holes...tapped and installed some buttonhead screws...I like them better over the flatheads...went ahead and countersunk the holes for the buttonhead screws so they sit just below the surface, but still have that rounded look to match the a/c.





Now gonna sit back, have a ham sammich and watch the Colts play!
