NOTE:
When mounting the bag in front of a sissybar, consider using the seat har-
ness mounting method (see pages 4 and 5) with the bag mounted backwards
on the passenger seat so the rider can use the supplied back rest pad.
IMPORTANT:
Regardless of how you orient the bag, attaching the supplied security straps

9 to solid mounting points on the chassis is essential for the bag to stay
securely attached to the motorcycle during rough riding conditions. After
installing the bag, cut off or secure any excess security strap material so it
will not interfere with the motorcycle’s controls, suspension, wheels or other
components.
Do not mount the bag behind the sissy bar unless the motorcycle has a rear
rack, as the bag could damage the rear fender and/or interfere with the
motorcycle’s lights, suspension, wheels or other components.
