yeah i think i might do that. make it a T that also arcs up under the fender to join the two cases together maybe. still gotta weld tabs for some locks too. otherwise they seem pretty good. i can stand on them so they are good for 80lbs each anyway.

Some great ideas in this thread. I had to get my pencil and paper out to write a few down before I forget them.
Thanks, Bill

its been awhile since ive been on the forum but all the other ideas are great! im happy to report that ive been using my mount setup for all of my riding for the past year or so with no problems at all (except for some of my steel brackets rusting, that will be fixed when i tear the bike down for powdercoating and maintenance this winter)


keep the ideas flowing and lets see some pictures!
