Title: Loose luggage
Post by: roadie1951 on June 19, 2011, 07:58:34 AM

I have an 08 (the fast one) with about 33,000 miles.  I noticed yesterday that my saddle bags seem to have some "jiggle" room when installed.  I've done a fair amount of longer distance riding and bungee the gear on my back seat to a couple of fastening points I installed on the bags.  I couldn't find any adjustment points to tighten up the bag installation to the bike.  Any thoughts?

Here's a pic of my bike loaded.
