    You’d think Harley would send you the necessary parts, but thanks for showing everyone how to get it done!

      To be fair this kit does fit all the Sportsters, the Roadster is so far from the other platforms. They should edit the description and put in the caveat for this bike.

    Nice job. I just had a battle trying to install my quick release genuine H-D fat boy saddle bags. I had to relocate my signals when I installed my removable sissy bar, so I “assumed” I was good to go. Well nope. H-D had 2 different kits for relocating the signals. My $50 kit didn’t move them enough to accept the bags. Now I need to spend another $100 and take the time to install another kit. I wish H-D would do things that didn’t cause you to spend extra cash

      I've run into fitment issues with a couple of their kits. It seems they don't go back and edit the description of the part/kit to reflect fitment issues. I hope this video helps another rider.

    Just got this, I noticed on your video, you don’t show putting on the bracket that goes on the battery bolt . Reason I bring this up is because I put that bracket on and it seems to push out my bag out

      @@maxibomaye2938 Ah gotcha Max. The factory put on way too much red threadlock. Go to the hardware store pick up a propane torch (cheap), Liquid Wrench or WD40. Soak the bolts for an hour then throw some heat on them. The torch will soften the threadlock and they should back out. Only other way is an impact driver. Let me know if this works. If it doesn't I'll post a link to a Impact driver for you. Good luck!
