Best Flag Poles?????
OK, These are a sticking point for me. You got cheap ones,
 you got crazy expensive ones  . Just want one to mount on my bag racks, leave it on. Need it on Veterans Day/Flag Day/ Independence Day/4th of July, I can just loosen it and stand it up, put the flag on and ride!I see alot of ya'll have them. Need some insight!  I've looked online at the cheesey DIY's. If I'm gogga put it on, I want it to stay on. Do the flags stand up to highway cruising? Thanks Guys!

This is the one I use
Flag Pole I have the longer 13" pole with the 10" X 15" flag. It is on all the time and has been up to over 100 mph with no problems. I do have my wife reinforce the stitching before I install the flag. It is expensive but a good quality product. I also have a 25' flag pole on my property with a light that shines on it all night long.

I made two of my own with 1/4 inch endless threaded stock. I put threaded round balls on the top, available at most hardware stores, and hold the flags in place with a washer and a nut under them.

Just remember to replace the flag if it gets frayed - torn - or ripped. I know that's a no sh!t idea but it's amazing how many people ride cars and bikes with ripped, dirty, torn flags. If you're gonna respect the flag then RESPECT THE FLAG!

DragonLady, I know this doesn't benefit you, but I use two of those HD fiberglass antennas as my flag poles. This is the best pic. I got of them.
