Please remember that if you fly our Flag it needs to be either in the center or on the right side of the operator for proper display. So in that case I would agree with Doc.

The RSCI is rather pricey. I've considered this for another option. Do you think the license plate holder is strong enough to support this type flag holder?

The ISCI may be pricey but it was made specifically for the RT. The one you show looks like the flag flies straight up which won't work on the RT as it will hit the rear trunk. The ISCI holder mounts the flag on the proper angle to give clearance needed for the trunk.

The new ISCI holders slant back nicely. The original ones were positioned straight up. Doc and I just recieved our new parts and the holders are great now. Many thanks to ISCI for the parts.

No, I do not believe so. The licence plate holder is designed to hold the llicence plate and is not strong enough to hold the flag.
I got the ISCI flag/license plate holder mounted at Spyderfest. Excellent quality...and love that I can display our awesome flag in such a proud way on my RT. Highly recommend the ISCI products...super quality.

Sorry to disagreee with you... I had the ESCI Flag mount with two flags, on the 2010 Blue RT for over 15,000 miles and Now I have the same holder on the 2011 Silver RT with over 3,000 miles and Yet have I had a problem with the License mounting system that ESCI provides. They WORK..

As per flag etiquitte, it can be flown from any position on the vehicle as long as its the tallest flag and no others are flown to the right side of it.

Really! That antenna flag holder is only $32. If flying the flag on the left side of the bike is acceptable, sounds like that would be the way to go. Thanks!

No, it is to be "on it's own right" - confusing but it is always to the riders right.

I rode down to Montgomery Sun PM from North of ATL and was at the ISCI front door at 0745 yesterday, per my arrangement made with Darrell.
They installed my "Hand Brake System" and the "Tall Two Flag" kit.
What a great company, range of Spyder specific accessories and superb people. They have a real
grasp on how to treat customers. Rode the Spyder back yesterday afternoon and all is well. Since my purchase of the RT in late August, everyone I have met with the Spyder program has been very professional and helpful. Hand brake kit and the flag holders are indeed top notch additions to The Big Red Bug. The flag holders are mounted behind the license plate and are very sturdy. If I could convince my wife to go back to work, I'd be ordering front shocks today.
Gotta take a nap - had a tooth pulled today and I'm about asleep at the keyboard after I took a pain pill.
Although I like ISCI and have some of their products (RT floorboards and highway pegs) I think their flag holder is great quality, but pricy IMO. I bought these, twisted them a little with a vice (they clash to the back end) and have rYden 3000 miles with them with no issues.

Left side is perfectly acceptable. Just can't fly another on the right side.
Great Idea , I do not know USA flag protocal so I hope that this idea would meet the protocal.
As for US flags, as long as they are the highest on the vehicle, and no other flag is being displayed to the right of them, you are good to go. I deal with this a lot on the boat, traveling into foreign countries.
Hmmmmm,,,,,, always tought that flags on bikes were a trade mark of harley riders
Patriot Guard Riders fly the American Flag and more on Harleys, Star, Victorys, Yahamas, Spyders, BMW, BSA, Triumphs, Duccuties (sp) Aprillas, Hondas, and many more because it is our FLAG

I have spendt the last two days in riding escort and standing the line for a Marine KIA. It was a Honor to be in that line. We escorted him to a final place of Honor. The Folded American Flag is a debt that can never be repaid.
