    Be Aware of Saddle Bags

    Hi all
    Having just returned from 15 days in the bush mainly on dirt roads and station tracks I have found that the Saddle bags that I had made in Bali which are the same as other forum members are using have left scratch marks on the spare wheel cover and near the door handle this could be due to dust factors and also dust mixed with rain or the straps not being tight enough or a combination of all of the above unlike the vinyl bags that I originally had made and put photos up on the forum there is no soft felt or lining on the rear of the bags so be aware that they may scratch your pride and joy
    Cheers

    G'dy Georgie,

    That's strange, I had mine on for 5 days and a couple of thousand km's and no marks that I can see. Might be worth stitching/sticking a bit of foam or similar on?
    My Backdoor etc is already covered in stone chips from towing a camper early on in the piece with no stone guards.

        I think it may have some thing to do with dust and water mixing together maybe causing an abrasive paste any way I will see if I can polish the scratches out
