thanks for the reply...and the link. my friend owns a local Triumph shop, so i have a source of info and bikes to measure from. the high mount exhaust will determine the distance from the bike. both sides will be the same distance from the bike. i know that Givi makes a set of bags that are made with the cut-out you talk of. i don't know if i will have a frame that is made to accept that type of bag...unless that is the biggest demand. if that is the system that the Tiger owners want...then i will look into that type of bag/frame system. the main reason that i would keep it simple and do the frames that i have, is so that with the basic frame that i want to offer it could accept a bunch of different brands of hard bags. you would be able to take my generic frame and mount the different locking frames from the manufacture of your choice. please let me know, what you as Tiger owners want in a system. i have the plan to make a rack that attaches to the two side frames and covers the rear seat. i envision a top rack that could just be used to strap down bulk items like tents and sleeping bags. this top rack could also be used to mount a top hard case. the top rack that i speak of would take the rear seat away from use. i guess that i could design a rear top rack to be able to ride a pillion and still have a top case. its the little details that i want to hear about, i built the rack for my bike to suit MY needs and now i want to be able to adapt my frame to other bikes and have all the different details covered. i, as a Daytona owner have different needs than you Tiger owners.....let me know.....
