Can anyone share some S2t pictures? I need to see the saddlebag bracket placement on the bike and what it looks like with the bag off. I have an S2 that I am going to fit the bags onto but I have never seen an S2t up close, and all the pics I find on line are bikes with the bags on.
I also need a source for the 2 clamps that hold the bracket to the frame.
Thanks

Those two clamps are general P brackets; you can get them usually at Lowes or Home Depot. Just measure the diameter of the frame tube to make sure you get the right size.

Thanks Phelan, good to know. I would still like some pics if anyone has any, I am a visual kind of person and would like to see one of the brackets in place.

Tigermann, a picture is worth a thousand words and what a great picture. The first one I have seen that shows the bracket and I can see the clamps clearly too.
Thank you

Ken,

I have put my brackets on and off a few times and found the best way it put them on loose, then put the luggage on and wiggle them around for even turn signal clearance, then tighten the 4 screws that hold the seat base, then finally tighten the clamps.

Also, mine came with two spacers that (I think) go under the front two seat base screws - I assume to match the added thickness of the bracket mounts that fit under the back two seat base screws
