I'm looking for a way to attach a parade flag to my Rt. I know I can use a trailer hitch but I do not need a hitch. Who has a solution for me????

Check out the Rivco trunk mount - actually comes with 2 mounts, but you can use just one if desired. I love mine!

Rivco unless all last min then you can zip tie firmly to passenger grips:thumbup: What size flag are you trying? I would not trust the zip ties at any faster than parade speeds fyi.

Think the flag I want to use is too big for the truck holder. Thanks

I do some funeral rides with the Patriot Guard and all the 'big flag' bikes have their flags attached via trailer hitch.

I think John has brackets, etc. for big flags that you might be interested in.

I used a home made plate that a Rivco flag holder bolts to. I use a full size 3' x5' flag.

Just talked to the owner - this is no longer available for use as a flag mount because he said it was not strong enough. I'm still looking!

I have taken the lg. flag holder off my website until I can have it made of heavier gauge steel. With the large parade Flags there is a great deal of stress on a Flag Mount. It can "tear"10 gauge steel, especially if you are flying two lg. Flags.
