Bro, it's good to see you're still with your bobber. I finally got one this month and have been dailying it. Your video about the scout as a beginner bike convinced me to get it. Since I'm a new rider, I threw that thing into rain mode and have been riding in it ever since. The throttle response and clutch are much more accessible than the old beaters I used during my MSF course. I just winterized the bike (cleaned and applied ACF-50) as the first snow fell. But we rarely get snow here in Toronto, so when the inevitable winter showers come and wash the roads clean, Imma ride it.

I had the solo bag, that I had to modify for my sissy bar, until I had to replace my battery. It was too much of a struggle by myself with a sissy bar to get it back on. Curious how these bags would go with a Dean speed sissy bar….? Love the videos, the humor and just everything you do, man! I was just visiting your page to review the exhaust comparisons again when I ran across this video.

I got these bags on my bike as well and the quality is not there compared to my saddlebags from endscuoio… The hardware from Viking bags was trash they didn’t supply enough washers since the studs are too long. Idk pretty cheaply made.
@RickyBobber7 ай бұрын
I think they make the studs longer in case you also add in a sissy bar. Honestly, not a big deal for me. I have a Ends Cuoio swing arm bag, and the dye on the stitching has washed away. Went from black to white
those are acorn nuts, not ment to be tighten to tight or you will blow the end out
@RickyBobber7 ай бұрын
This set uo definitely requires the nuts to be tight or the bags will shake. After thinking about it I think the bolts are left long in case you sandwich a sissy bar in there
