    Default 2008 Can Am Spyder Fleetliner Saddlebags mounting info wanted?

    I have recently purchased a set of used Fleetliner Saddlbags for my 2008 Can Am Spyder RS, and am needing mounting instructions. I also have all of the hardware, but am confused on what goes where?? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

    I agree, that they should have had instructions, but I bought them from an individual, and did not receive the instructions with the bags. They look like they will fit, but just not sure how to attach the mounting brackets. I did read one post that said the tail lights need to be relocated, but not sure how to do that either. All of that information is probably included in the instructions. I will send pictures as soon as I get the left one back from the painter on sunday. They were grey (or silver), and I had them painted red to match my Spyder.

    The Fleetliner saddlebags came from Corbin. They were the "cats meow" back in 08 and 09. Made the Givi's look like second place. I never went for the extra $2500 for a set...I thought the $1000 for the Givi's was bad enough.

    You may be able to look in the Corbin archives and get a set of the mounting instructions for the Fleetliners. Good luck in your hunt.

    I know the turn signals get relocated to the bags or the mounts and set in a protected slot on the back of the bag

    Thank you. After much searching, I did finally find the notes tab on one website, but it only shows the exhaust mounting instructions. Getting ready now to take the skins off the back of my spyder, and see it that will get me any closer to figuring this out.

    Well, after removing the skins on the right side, everything was fingered out pretty quickly. Just going to take some time to get it all put together.
