    Bagman Help!

    Hi I just got a NOS Bagman (by Lemans, NOT VETTER) tank bag off ebay for my 81 GS850G. It is missing at least one strap/snap clip and it is not clear how the remaining straps fit up. I could just re-rig it as I have done with other luggage but would like to try first to use the supplied rigging. I can send pics of bag & rigging straps if someone out there is pretty familiar with this bag. Else I'll just "Frankenstein" it as so much else on the bike bears my "distinctive" look.

    Thanks,

    DH

    Life is a balancing act, enjoy every day, "later" will come sooner than you think. Denying yourself joy now betting you will have health and money to enjoy life later is a bad bet.

            Yeah I had one of those but it is shredding pretty badly & tho I believe I can sew it up by hand & even make it stronger it is on line behind 27,345 other things I believe I can do but never get to. So I got this one. I think I'll just rig up my own odd strapping set up as the Vetter harness has no resemblence to the Lemans Bagman type.

                No Walls? Mine are padded.

                Anyhoo, I finally got someone at Lemans Corp. & tho she expressed doubt she could help me I told her to find a bald paunchy old guy as they are the ones who know where the archive files are. Within minutes I rec'd a fax of the installation instructions.

                Well tonite I tried it their way, didn't like the setup for my bike & redid the strap system to match my own vision of Visigothinan psycho-metaphysical design as I should have done in the first place. Looks swell just waiting for a road test.
                Thanks for all the comments, etc. :-D & \\/
