I have a question for you. I have installed the passenger back rest and sissy bar rack. I have the large sissy "bag" and tried out that combination this week to go away camping. I found the bag was almost impossible to fit in that the middle ve;cro strap that you thread through the gap in the back of the passenger back rest didnt seem to want to "go through" eventually managed it (after about 10 mins) . Does anyone else have this drama at all or is it just my bag?
thx for any help

first ordered the large bag. got the small one. reordered the large bag. got another small one. the puter has the order numbers reversed. if you want the large, order the small.
anyway, it was a mystery how to stand it upright: does not fit, does not tie down. lay it flat on its back, and the velcro slip through the slits on the luggage rack,a dn the long center strap cinches down the two side straps and hold it securely but supinely flat.
useable but looks out of place.
the large bag has the same foibles.

I can now do it in a few seconds; I fold and roll the velcro strap so it holds a bend for a few seconds, sight down the slot and just push it through. Trying to push it through straight is nigh on impossible.
