can you switch sides

Nice
You do the installation yourself.

Don't know if your a surgeon but better watch them hands :roflblack:

 

[Tazzel]

do you have plenty of room to open the lid of the bags fully? I am going to do the same but will probably choose the bags that lock on the top

 

[DrJohn]

Tazzel;

The bags open with plenty of room to spare. They can be locked with the pad locks that are supplied.

Dr. John,
Looking at your photos, I believe your bags are on the wrong side of the bike, the long slate should go to the rear not front....
Look at the bags in the response under yours and I think you will see what we are saying... But I am not an expert, so I could be wrong...
either way have a Merry Christmas and I am glad you are enjoying your new F3...

Saddlebag Install

Just got the same saddle bags and easy brackets. Concerning mounting the easy brackets, I notice the angle on the 2 docking posts, where did you position the bag on the mounting plate? I do not know if you should make the bag run level with seat or how exactly? Thanks!
