5- Thread the front mounting straps on each bag around the frame side tubes, Below the Sub-Frame. Thread
the webbing behind the sub frame. On the Exhaust side be very careful. USE our Kiowa Heat Shield HS401
(not included). (Yes, the webbing can be close to the exhaust header, the pipe can be very hot.) We have
designed the front straps so they can be replaced if they get melted.

Once all the straps are mounted the E-12 Saddle Bags should look like. FIG1
**Tighten all straps snug.
Helpful hints:
During a ride check the straps tension every so often.
Put most of your heavy items on the non-exhaust side. (This is to make sure the bag does not flex the side panel
onto the exhaust pipe.)
-The seat straps, front mount straps and Tension-O-Matic webbing straps are made extra long. You can cut to
length, leave about 4” of tail and sear edge with a lighter. If you make a mistake, no worries, they are
replaceable.
-Use the 5 compression straps to secure the contents.
-Before riding, do yourself a favor and make a dry run with the bags on.
**Make sure the straps are tight and snug.
