[lboos]

I have been wanting to mount a small American flag and a POW flag on the back of my T/G, I don't have the chrome rack on the luggage comp.... it's like it came.
the flags I have looked at mount on the chrome rack.
is their an easy way to mount one or two small flags with out major surgery?
any one have any pic's of their flag mounts on their stock luggage compartment ?
Thanks for any comments or advice.

You can buy American/POW flags w/holders at the HD dealer.....they clip to the tour pak. You do know the American flag mounts on the right (throttle) side? Both flags are the same size.

Sent you a pm w/my e-mail address.....will take photo so you can see what the flags look like.

By the way, when they fade (and they will),the dealer also has replacement flags for around $15.00.

But, you have to ask them.

They'll never put them on display because most folks will just buy another set for $35.00 instead and they're not in business to SAVE you money!

Guess I went brain dead reading the o.p. lol, didn't see that he DIDN'T have a rack on his tour pac.

I realize its a bit more money for HD, but you would be happy if you sprung for the luggage rack and then mount the flags to it. We use the heck out of our luggage rack. Happy, happy, happy.

I found out the hard way that the flags that attach to the lip of the tour pack scuff the heck out of the paint.

I had the ones that attach to the tour pac lip and with the plasic stick on that came with them they were fine. I had them on there for about 7 years.

Rumbling Pride: Trident Kit

Rumbling Pride, unscrew antennas and mount then screw antennas back on

Actually don't have to unscrew antennas...flags will slip over the top, but will have to use electrical tape or some kind of tape to keep the flags from "flying" off the end of antennas! Ask me how I know:gah:

That's why the packet includes clear tape squares that will stick on the tour pak!

For the smaller flags I put them on over the antennas. Punch a small hole at the bottom & top, & use a very small wire tie. Put one at the bottom over the spring flex area, & one on the top around the antenna. They never move if they are tight!

I didn't like the lip clip-on type mast. I have the H-D tour-pac light guard. One day a friend gave me a couple H-D flag holders for a sissybar back rest. That bracket fits like a glove on the verticle bars on the light guard and with 4 plastic zip ties makes for a very clean, almost custom look and I don't have to worry about scuffing up the tour-pac or deforming the lid gasket. ThumbUp

If anyone is interested, I can take some pictures and post them.

Had a buddy that fitted a 4"X6" flag over the top of his antenna and it eventually ripped the antenna off. Luckily, he was still under warranty.

Story of my life Izski. Something works for everybody else but not for me.E]

Excellent idea Slou......I will try your suggestion!
