Hmmmm....

With the zipties, they are rock solid and they give me an easy to reach bar to use as a tie down to the D-clips on the saddle bags

And it looks like they'll keep the saddle bags away from the springs

That's two less walking-canes that I'll never make, but I think it might work ok.

Those bags are not moving an a millimeter after you strap them down. Smile Enjoy your trip and safe travels.

We all look forward to your pictures and the next chapter of Saddle Bag Support. David

The most sophisticated, smooth, perfectly engineered motorcycle I've ever owned. A pleasure in every way.
