Q: Why do I want to buy Easy Brackets
A: Everyone will have their own particular reasons. However some of the
most common are:
•To eliminate damage to the paint on the rear fender with throw over
saddlebags.
•To be able to remove the bags in seconds when you arrive at your
destination and reinstall them in seconds when you are ready to
leave.
•To return your bike to a clean cruising look.
•To be able to install your bags to avoid conflicts such as high shot
gun pipes.
Q: How do Easy Brackets work
A: Easy Brackets are shipped with all the hardware necessary to mount
them to your motorcycle with only basic tools. The kit comes with (4)
stainless steel docking posts which are mounted to your motorcycle fender
rail with polished stainless steel bolts. They will replace the existing fender
mounting bolts. The bracket is then mounted to the back of the saddlebags
with the hardware provided. The bracket then slides onto the docking posts
and locks into place.
Q: Are the Easy Brackets safe and secure
A: Yes. The brackets are constructed of 12 gauge steel. The brackets are
equipped with a keyed locking mechanism for security when mounted to
the motorcycle.
Q: Do I need stand off guards to keep the saddlebags out of the rear wheel
A: No. Easy Brackets are designed to eliminate the need for stand off
guards, thus providing a very clean appearance when the saddlebags are
removed.
Q: Will Easy Brackets fit my motorcycle
A: Easy Brackets fit most American and metric cruisers. When searching
for an Easy Bracket model for your cruiser it is necessary to search by
motorcycle manufacturer, model, year and accessory.
Sample:
Harley Davidson, Dyna Wide Glide (FXDWGI), 2008, with
detachable backrest
Easy Brackets Model: DNA-L3DB
Q: What types of saddlebags will work with Easy Brackets
A: Easy Brackets are designed to work with any hard, flat back
saddlebags.
If the back of the saddlebags are flexible leather, a piece of rigid material
similar to thin aluminum or Plexiglas may be attached to the inside or
outside of the back of the saddlebags to create a rigid surface.
If the saddlebags are the throw over type, the yoke may be cut off and the
exposed edge dyed with black dye or black shoe polish
Easy Brackets will also work with OEM saddlebags but may require longer
bolts and shims at the mounting points due to the formed back on most
OEM saddlebags.

Q: What if I have a detachable backrest
A: Easy Brackets are designed specifically for use with many detachable
backrests. The Easy Bracket docking posts mount outside the detachable
backrest making the two systems independent of each other.

Q: Do I need to purchase any other hardware to use this product
A: No, the kit comes complete with all necessary hardware to mount
the Easy Brackets to the motorcycle using saddlebags with a hard, flat
back saddlebag.
Q: Do I have to drill holes in my fender
A: No, you do not have to do any drastic modifications like that to your
motorcycle, although for some models you may have to relocate your turn
signals.
Q: Will the bracket remain on my motorcycle
A: No, only the small docking posts will remain on your motorcycle.
They are small and made from highly polished stainless steel -- very
unobtrusive. The brackets are permanently attached to the saddlebags.
Q: If I have a backrest, then do I have to purchase an "Adapter Kit" too
A: No. If you purchase the correct Easy Bracket kit then everything you need is in that kit -- no hidden "gotcha" fees.
Q: If I already have the Easy Brackets and I upgrade to a backrest do I have
to buy a whole new kit
A: No. Backrest Upgrade Kits are available at greatbikegear.net.
Q: For my motorcycle, it says that I must relocate my turn signals. Is the turn signal relocation kit included with the Easy Brackets
A: No, these must be purchased separately. Turn signal relocation kits are
available at greatbikegear.net.
Q: How long will it take to receive my order
A: Most orders ship within (1-2) business days from receipt of your order

FEDEX ground which takes approximately one week to get across the
country.
