Title: OEM Saddle Bag Brackets
Post by: Skelmore on July 10, 2013, 21:33:44 PM

I have a '05 800 Drifter. Just bought a set of OEM saddle bags off the Kawasaki website, but it says that I need the mounting brackets. I think these are the U shaped brackets.. Any ideas where I can find these?

Yeah, troll's link tells you want you need to know... you will need to try to find the struts and loops... usually ebay is a reasonable source.

The struts aren't easy to find. More info here (http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/oemsbsetup.html)...

Thanks guys. i bought the loops from Troll's link. Looks like i will still need the extended struts? Or will the struts in that link work? Sorry, this is my first time with bags. Im still confused.
