Saddles Bags

[hdtriker]

1. I saw a picture of a trike here on trike talk that had what looked like two saddlebags on the rear of the trike. I am wondering how they are attached, ect.

2. Where do I sell all of the parts left over from when my Roadglide is tricked?

Question 1 answer, there is a couple that has a GW with what looks like two saddlebags, one on each fender. They carry their puppy's in them. They mounted fender racks, Trike Adjustable Chrome Fender Rack - Honda Gold Wing Parts & Accessories by WingStuff.com Built flat pans to mount on the racks and mounted T-Bags on the pans. Hope this helps.

Question 2, don't know ?????? Ebay?

They are from H-D and I love the hell out of them. I keep a lot of small crap in them and when I go on vacation I have a back seat luggage that I bungie to the luggage rack so it's a pain to open the lid to get some small item. The saddle bags serve that purpose.
I had a problem with the dealer installation because one of the steps in the install manual is wrong and they installed them crooked. It took a couple months to get them corrected to my satisfaction.
It's so much easier to open them then to keep opening the tour pac.

They are held on by 2 posts and a quick disconnect type pin(like the saddlebags on an Ultra. So you do have to drill 3 holes.

There is also a couple that has a trailer-like trunk on a hitch. It looks like the rear of a bagger. Color-coded to match their trike.

Mini-saddlebags from HD....like Gary said, great for keeping "stuff" in them and not opening the tour lid all the time.

If your talking about the red trike thats mine. I used the saddlebag mounts that were onthe two wheel bike with the trailer hitch mounted to them. turned it around, the saddlebags mounted back on reversed to the brackets and the holed still lined up. Having a newhitch on the trike, I just used apiece of 1 1/4" tubing and slid it into both hitching and put the pins in both. Used black deck railing tubes cut to fit between the two bags to stablize the top size holes with threaded rod thru the tubes and put nuts and washers on the inside of the bags. Found a wire rack that fit between the two bags and just tiewrapped to the rack and found a cooler that fit in between and a few other little mods to it and done. No welding, just a drill and hacksaw.

Thank you for the information.

I can't figure out how to copy pictures from a previous post and paste it here. Maybe this will work. If not the thread started on Nov. 2 2011 - search for TRI GLIDE SADDLEBAGS AND BUMPER. Pictures started being posted on post 31

There are quite a few using the trailer hitch to carry another trunk instead if pulling a trailer. You can get them complete with tail & brake lights.
There was one that also had a single (caster style) wheel .
Watch the freeways for entertainment !

I have seen those rigs for the goldwing they use the old bags off the bike , if you have had your wing coverted and kept your parts , then it will be easy to make your own. I am sure just as easy for other bikes as well.
