Flying 3'x5' Flags from a 2016 Can-Am Spyder RT S with Can-Am trailer hitch installed
I would like to be able to fly two (2) 3'x5' flags from my new (of 10 days!) RT-S when participating in Patriot Guard Rider missions. I had the trailer hitch installed in the hope that I could find a bracket to use with the hitch in order to fly the two flags. I have looked at what info I could find on this site, but nothing works. Short of having a bracket custom made, does anyone have any info about such a bracket? Thanks in advance for your help!

I can understand 1 large flag but two is asking a lot of any bracket
All my PGR buds with large flags have custom poles of PVC with whatever clamp or bracket they need for their bike. & only for the short escort runs under 30mph. Its ez enough to DIY one you just need to inspect & chat with those that have them, maybe they have an old one that will work better for you¿ Nothing wrong with the smaller bike flag, its a procession not a parade
I've taken that item off my website until I can make it stronger. Two lg. flags put tremendous pressure of a mount and can actually tear the steel plate holding the tubes. Will address the problem next Spring. I appreciate the heads-up.
Ride in comfort

I use an Amateur Radio mobile whip that is up on a fiberglass stick to get the antenna higher for better range, which would be about like a flag. It was to be temporary for one event but it stayed on the hitch for quite a while. It doesn't look all that great but it was a temporary measure, if you wanted to make one better looking you could.
I used a square u-bolt, some aluminum L-bracket material and tubing and a couple of hose clamps.
I hade a custom made adapter and used the Rivco flag holder for 1 flag. I added Stainless steel cabling that prevents the flag from bending back at speed.

Check with John Anderson owner, designer of Sealfloorboards....he had designed what you want and sold a couple years ago...He is a site sponsor..Merry Christmas
I think I read that John has removed the dual flag holder from sale because the material could fail but I am not sure. Check with him, he makes quality products.
