First two pic's are the Easy Brackets mounted to the Bags. It really makes it easy to install and remove these in a matter of seconds. 3rd and 4th pics are of the studs that they mount to. Last pic is just a side shot sorry about the glare.

What bags are those? Looks like you did a nice install.

How good do those stay on?

What the bags or the brackets?
Either of them are on very well. The brackets will never come of the bike unless you have the key to unlock them. The bags are bolted to the brackets with 4- 3/8" bolts, The bags have a plastic liner in them that give them more support and make them solid to mount to. The bolts don't just go through the leather, they go through the leather and the liner inside the bag.

This makes me want to mod my bags so they're not throwover. I have saddlebad supports I could bolt them right onto, hrm

Thats awesome, that is exactly what I have been looking for as far as getting a set of bags mounted. I dont like the chrome "loops" that the OEM bags mount to. Are those mounts seperate from the bags or do the bags come with them? Leatherlyke makes a set that mount the exact same way, they are a hard plastic leather looking bag with key locks on the tops of the compartments. I think there arround $459 how does that setup compare in price?

They are seperate from the bags, You can get them from easybrackets.com for 150.00 or get them from oneidasuzuki.com for 127.00 I got them from oneida.
Note: some places don't have them listed to fit the 2005 C50, the 2004 Volusia is the same.

That looks great, I'm going to do the same thing soon, it was great to see some nice pics! Thanks for the post and pics!

Will the brackets work with the Suzuki bags that are made for the C50? I love those and have the ones from Suzuki that require the loop.

 

[fjm3rd]

They should fit on any bag that is fairly flat on the back side. As the pictures show you can mount them anywhere on the bag. The way I fitted them was to mount the brackets on the bike then hold the bags where I wanted them and made some reference marks on the bags and took the brackets back off and set them in place and drilled the holes through the bags. Took about 15 minutes to mount them to the bags.

any idea if one of the brackets not listed for the m50 will fit? I called and they said that they don't make them for m50 or c50, but obviously the volusia ones worked.

 

[fjm3rd]

If they fit on the 04 Volusia they will fit on the 05 C50 who said they don't make them for the C50, the Easybracket people ? As far as the M50 you got me.
