Title: 84 R65 saddlebag mounts - measurements?
Post by: Danno on September 05, 2008, 09:47:13 AM

Has anyone ever taken the time to photograph and measure the saddlebag mounts for an 84 R65? It shouldn't be that hard to fab them.

They are still available new, no need to fabricate from scratch.

That's interesting since Bob's said they haven't been available for several years. Where did you come up with the number?

I just bought a set last spring from Chicago.

The numbers are here, as well as other 'fiche sources:
