Bungee Nuts for a 2013 Voyager

markc9503 · 12-04-2013, 12:20 AM

Does anyone make bungee nuts for the Voyager? I have seen some from (I think) Cobra that says they fit the Voyager but the bolts are too long. I had ones from Kawasaki on my Vulcan 800 and they were very useful for securing stuff on the passenger seat. Heck, if I could replace my passenger seat with a nice cargo area or a second top case I probably would.

I'm assuming you mean bungee nets.
I have a couple that are not brand or model specific, one I got at a Harley dealer, and the other one I picked up at the dollar store of all places. The dollar store one is equal as good at a lot less cost.

Oops my bad, guess if there is a place OEM bolts could be replaced on the voyager, then they would be easy to make up or obtain knowing the correct thread and length needed.

Get some flanged bushings and longer bolts.

He is not talkin about the kind of nuts you had on your back fender awhile back.

Those things are dangerous they swayed in the wind and caused high speed wobbles.

If you are bungeeing your nuts to your motorcycle they must be big.

Have you tried j&p cycles or cruiser customizing?

The most logical thing at that point is to get a hacksaw or dremel and shorten them to the length you need. Too long generally is easily worked around. Too short and then ya need to invest the big bucks in a bolt stretcher.

They (the Cobra bolts) are also too large in diameter so cutting them down is not an option.

Ok, so how about what I have used on several bikes? May not be as cool aesthetically, but serves the same purpose: http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/331082619902?lpid=82

That certainly looks like a workable solution. I will look into it. Thanks.
