Help mounting Saddlebag brackets

I bought a used pair of Suzuki Boulevard bags and supports, used, Suzuki part number 990A0-75017, for My '07 S50. I'm not sure exactly where the supports mount. I think the rear hole mounts in the middle hole of the sissy bar bracket....but I don't know whether it goes between the sissy bar bracket and the big round chrome bar or where. And the front hole appears to go where that little bolt holds the fender to the frame, but I don't know whether it goes between the fender and the round chrome bar or inside the fender. Once I get the brackets on, I think the bags are pretty simple to figure out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
 
lots of threads on this general topic... please use search. "easy bracket", etc
However, your description is pretty hard to follow... generally brackets always mount as the outermost element.... but depending on bracket it may take a spacer to re seat the chrome properly...or may need longer bolts...?

surprised it isnt obvious which set of holes line up... and give you a level bracket which gives a level bag later....

can you add pix ?
 
Geno61: At least on my '06 S50, which should be the same as your '07, both the front and back part of each saddlebag support line up and attach inside the fender. Too bad the person that you bought the accessories from didn't also give you the instructions for installation. The bags should be easy enough to get on. I didn't get the Suzuki ones, though; mine are River Road.
 
Ty i am having this problem too. The instructions are not clear from Suzuki. I was looking at the photos at Suzuki.ca and i could barely see if the supports where to the inside of the fender. This now confirms it. ty again.
 
I just install them on my bike last week ( it was not easy). they fit inside the fender, you have to replace botls with the set supplied for the fronts only, the back will use the stock bolts. and since you will be removing the bolt for the suspension, you will have to torque the bolts to the specified torque.
