Abstract
In one embodiment the saddlebag includes a cutaway in the forward lower corner portion thereof to provide a heel clearance for a passenger on the cycle. A substantially solid panel is affixed to the interior rear of the bag and an elongated attachment plate is provided on the exterior rear of the saddlebag. A U-shaped bar pivotally mounted to the interior panel is advantageously employed as part of the internal frame construction for the bag. The bags are mounted on the cycle by way of a first pair of straps secured to spaced locations on the seat and a second pair of straps removably connected thereto. The ends of the straps of the second pair are detachably secured to the attachment plate on the saddlebags. A rigid strap mounted to a fixed part of the cycle is adapted to receive a connector extending from the lower front side of the saddlebag. A rear strap connecting the rear portions of a pair of saddlebags is also provided. Each saddlebag may include detachable exhaust/abrasion shields.
