Modified Flag Holder

Post by DevilsFan »

Got a 3' piece of aluminum and (2) 5/16" threaded bolts for flag poles. Cut the aluminum to size then drilled holes, 2 for the "flagpoles" and 2 to match the Shad top case mounting base. Sandwiched the threaded bolts between the aluminum with lock nuts, then put 2 plastic donut thingies on top and bottom of the flags and capped each threaded bolt off with another lock nut.
I haven't ridden with it mounted yet but I will take the CTX out and see if my flagpole mount stays...or goes!

There will be a time where you will no longer be able to use, "But...I didn't know!", as an excuse. And if you're exiled from society, well, you were warned.

Nice holder but please note the American flag is on the right never on the left in a two mount setup.

Never said I did not like the flag, in fact I support the southern flag even if I was born in the north. I spent 20 years in the Navy defending your rights. I was just pointing out proper flag etiquette. Did not mean to offend.
