I figured out a way to mount my bags straps under the seat and over the grab bar, rather than over the seat
... Because my wifes a$$ was sliding every turn when she sat on the straps
... Too much of a difference in comfort with a Corbin saddle with straps covering the dang thing
... Here are some pics of how I did it
... Works great now

The wide strap kept binding in the lock
... This pencil was the answer
... I wedged it under the locking mechanism to hold the strap down from binding it up... Took 2 hours to get the strap length to be just right though
... Now it takes just minutes to put on and take off

The front wide strap is extended to the edges with lots of slack... Make sure that the Neoprene protects any point where the bag or strap would touch any paint... or it may not be too nice later...

Front straps to tiedown bars...

Rear straps to signals... Make sure they are not covered over
...

Enough space between the bag bottom and the exhaust would be a good thing too...

Then just add the seat

and it is all done... No strap to sit on at all
... All is GOOD now
...

I just hope that I could help somebody with all of this
... and that this photo essay wasn't too freakin large
...
The Only bad thing is that those bags cover up my new KatRiders decals
