    Default Flags

    Crazy, question but where/how are you placing flags on your SPYDERS??? I belong to the Patroit Guard and Red Knights and would like to display the flags on my bike. I have the corbin bags so the passenger handles are out.

    I've struck out too. I have the Corbin fender so the license plate isn't an option for me. Most of the flag mounts are made for sissy bars.

    On the license plate...look for my pics somewhere here...lemme see...

    Oh, the back of the bike was apart as this was the time I was putting in NMN/ESI's rear brake lights...

    I got these from www.bikerforlife.com Robert Harvey is the owner...great guy...I think his site is down right now, but I have his email, if you need it...



    I have two mounts there...I ultimately went with the longer (14 inch) one...

    I got mine directly from Rumbling Pride I have two TCM 22s with 14" flag staffs. Flags have a lifetime guarantee. They are Harvey's source. Check out the ones for Ultra Cruisers

    In HDX's world, none of us who ride together get a flag unless we earn it. Well since I broke 100 a few times up and down the highway, I got mine! He stuck it behind the plate and the plate holder, there's a zip tie holding it but you can't see it. Right now it's all tattered to bits and I wanted a new flag but HDX says that the tattered means I ride it like a big girl now.

    I also belong to the PGR group.. Here is how I installed my flag:

    http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/s...ad.php?t=11831

    Remember that the Cotton flags are heavy and cause a LOT of drag and might just break the mast. (just had a report of 4 flag masts breaking during a PRG funeral due to higher than normal speed travel). I've had my bike up to 55 w/o any problems with my Wally World flag waving proudly....

    Just one of many ideas.

    Here are somantennae flag mounts the first fits on to a trailer mount

    http://www.wingstuff.com/pgroup_deta...de_Flag_Holder


    This allows you to mount a small flag on you radio antenna if you have one
    Kuryakyn part# 4217 Antenna Mount Flag


    This is the worst web site with what I think is the best mount. It mounts to your license plate holder but I can think of a few other places to mount it and its 19.95 with free shipping. A US flag and flag staff is included.

    i thought this topic was a bit familiar, so I did a search. The search feature is your friend. This board has been around a while and lots of good information has been touched upon. I find that a lot of threads are being created when a search could have turned up better results.

    Anyway... check this thread

    http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/s...highlight=flag

    also this post.
