Rumbling Pride Flag Set with Can Am Travel Cover

[DR Buck]

I've had a number of questions about how do the Rumbling Pride flag sets work with the Can Am travel cover. Below are some photos of the cover on my RT Limited showing the flags. You can also unscrew the flag staffs from the mounting base it you want. However to do that you will not be able to add locktite to the threads. Since they are a plastic material my guess is after a number of in and outs the threads will start to wear and the flags could become loose and fall off. I choose to just leave them in and pull the cover down against the mount. I did not use locktite on the top caps as I have a few different flags that I swap out depending on my additude on any given day.

We have the Rumbling Pride flag mounts on our RT as well, though set a little higher. After losing a couple of antennas, my husband put loctite on the antenna and flags. So to get the cover over all, I cut slits in the cover and reinforced the edges so they wouldn't rip out. Works fine!

I've had the Rumbling Pride flag set installed on the RT since 2010. One of Rumbling Pride's owners worked with me to find the best mounting position on the rear trunk (I think Dr Buck may have seen my setup soon after buying his RT last year) I just unscrew the flags each time I want to install the travel cover. I don't use any locktite and I've probably had them off and on over 50 times. Never had a problem with them coming loose during travel.
