Frankenstein- storage/ saddlebags

[wefrogy]

I have a Harley Sportster that I am looking to put a trike conversion kit on. For anyone who is familiar with Frankenstein is there a way to use your saddlebags or what other storage options can be used with this kit?

Have a machinist build you a rack that bolts the the rear end housing and put a bag on it.

Here is how I added storage to my Frankenstein conversion.



Now with new bars and lockable storage.

I just put an expandable small bag on my fender rack. It holds everything I need including my leather jacket if needed. I plan on adding a tool bag to the front also. As Trike Lady pointed out they also make a large luggage rack for the sportsters. For long trips I just bungee down a large waterproof duffel bag on the fender rack. You have endless tie down points with the fender brackets.

Here is mine...

Not sure about Frankenstein, but with my Champion kit and the angle of the shocks, I could not find any bags that would work. The other issue is the bottom of the bags hitting the rear axle when the suspension compresses.

I mounted a Yamaha tour trunk on my luggage rack,it will hold 2 half helmets or 1 full face. I also have a tool pouch on the front fork and horse pommel bags sitting on the fender supports. I attached them like full size saddlebags under the seat.

Oh yeah, I also have a small tank bag for daily use and a large expandable.

Pictures

I would love to see any picture of bags strapped to fender supports. This is where I was thinking just not sure about it. Anyone with any pic of this?
