Here is a custom saddle bag for the Ridgeback guys.

How does it attach? Mines a 08 Ridgeback. Looked at the one made by BD for right side mount but it does not work on a Ridgeback. Thanks V

Hey V, these aren't made by Bigdog, as for attachment, there is four straps two on top, left, and right, and two on the bottom, left, and right. You loop each strap thru one slit from inside to out, wrap it around the frame, and put the strap thru the other slit, and buckle the strap on the inside. So it is attached at four points, very secure, doesn't move.

As for the 08 Ridgeback, I would call Ryan, and ask, I'm guessing our frames are the same on each side, or close to it.

Reaper,
Your ride is super awesome! That bag is somewhat like one they had back for one side of the 57 panhead. We called it a grocery bag.

I've just got to have one of those. :DYou wouldn't believe the amount of times i'd like to throw a pair of shorts and another shirt for the swimmin hole on mine and ride. That thing will carry some stuff it looks like! Thanks for sharin that.

Thanks TJ, I appreciate it. I think they can make that bag in a thicker version so you can put even more stuff in it.

I was thinking the same thing. With our plates turned horizontal like they are they could come on out a few more inches if we wanted. Great find! Sounds like you gotta good dealer up there. I'm gettin one soon.

Cool...Reaper can we get a pic of the kickstand up?
Here you go Shane, the kickstand does touch the bottom of the bag when retracted, but the kickstand will fully retract into the normal, and fully retracted position, so no issues with that.

I just spoke with Ryan today, they are waiting for more bags to come in. I'm at least on the list though ( I may be paying a little more for this bag too).

Great find Reaper!
