The rear fender straps should go through the D rings prior to going to the rear buckle of the bag. This provides more latteral "tightening" of the metal hooks to the fender itself. I have these bags and love them; they are very secure on my bike. When I fitst got them, while snugging them down, one of the buckle's threading broke. I contacted Nelson-Rigg and they sent me a new bag right away after I sent them photos. Great customer service in my opinion.

How are the stitches? The main negative point i saw from reviews on different sites is they rip or seam just split open

[@BKcycles]

So far I haven't had any issues with the stitching on the actual bags, it's held up pretty well in terms of durability. Recently though the material on one of the compression straps has started to come apart, which is disappointing but an easy fix

[@Nelsonriggusa]

Most of the stitch situations have arisen from the straps being pulled the opposite direction of the intended routing. If the instructions are followed, the bags typically have zero issues.
