Easy or Edge(Ghost) Brackets

[cootertwo]

Edge, and a hammer, (the handle end) like others have said. Gotta be just right, or the key won't turn.

HansO, do you remove the bags when you wash the bike? I wasn't sure if that was a necessity as they get rained on now and then.

No I don't bother once in a while I will take the bags of the frame and use a proper leather dressing, rest of the time I just was with the rest of the bike, you can still get in behind to give most bits there a good clean I also give them a hit with some boot polish every so often to keep the black c....r (cant bring myself to call black a colour) looking good

I have to admit I like the quality of the stock brackets withe the under bag support.

that is another reason to stick with them I found that while the empty bag was a good inch or so clear of the exhaust, but that every so often after being on a bumpy road that there rub marks on the bag and exhaust if there was any weight in there

I feel the Triumph panniers are way too small and way, way too expensive.
If you gotta go use panniers for a trip, why not go for carrying as much as you can?
You didn't ask me, but I be mouthy and opinionated . . .
I always remove my bags when washing because the rear wheel needs love too AND it only takes 3 seconds!

Easy Brackets here. They are, uhh, easy to use and they look good and innocuous with bags removed.

I got the panniers touring screen and engine dresser bars, not to mention tall pillion backrest and rack plus the leather tank strap ALL thrown in for FREE so I sure as hell ain't going to complain about the size of the bags, I have no trouble cleaning the back wheel either

Easy boy, there HansO.
I wasn't jabbing at you. Was talking at Dawg68 and merely emphasizing the easy of removing panniers with Easy Brackets.
I be real glad you got all that stuff for free as I enjoy your old Utopia back rest every time I ride.
Huggies and Kisses, Mate.

Got to love it when a plan comes together I wasn't cranky just having fun waiting for your reaction so double
sorry if I made you think i was Cranky but it was this little fella that made me do it and beside I have not used my signature red writing in a long time so I thought it should come back out of the cupboard

 

[HansO]

Oh and enough of the Hugs and Kisses or I'll start thinking you are Gay or Som'thing OK!!

 

[1olbull]

Good one, Mate. At least you know yourself well enough to recognize you be a cranky $hit at times.
Guess I got you back a little with the gay caballero crack. So, back at ya!!!

 

[HansO]
