Help with cross country bags

[ATitus]

Looking for anyone that has installed the cross country detachable bags, that can give me instructions. Thanks any help would be appreciated.

HARD or SOFT

it all depends on if you plan on getting HARD or SOFT bags....
I have the soft bags, Sedici, which is all i'll ever need... i do at least 1 X-country ride each year, and they've worked out just fine...
SOFT bags don't require the mounting of extra hardware, that stays attached to your SPYD3R... HARD bags have external supports that stay on when the bags are off... so give this consideration prior to buying...

Do you need the instructions? I think I have those some place. Pretty easy install.

I don't have the printed instructions with me: Tazz said she would have them. In general, replace the buttons on the grab handles, then mount the left and right support/locking brackets. The brackets fit in the left and right access covers located in the under cover near the front of the rider's seat. All of those fit with minimal adjustments possible. Except for the forward stop on the brackets: their positions affect the"lock" of the bags onto the Spyder.

I set mine so that the latch mechanism bottoms out against the stop. Too tight and you won't be able to turn the button inside to go past the center detent to lock; too loose and the mechanism seems to unlock if the stop is set ti lose l.
