A quick release saddlebag mounting system preferably includes two mounting assemblies, two mounting brackets and two mounting bolts. Each mounting assembly includes a cam, a driving handle, and at least one plate. The cam is retained in the at least one plate. The driving handle is attached to the cam with any suitable process. A hole is formed through the at least one plate to slidably receive a single mounting bolt. Each mounting assembly is preferably attached to a side of a saddlebag with a mounting bracket. Each mounting bolt is attached to a fender or mounting structure of a motor vehicle. The two mounting bolts are located to be received by the holes of the two mounting assemblies. To attach the saddlebag to the motor vehicle, the cam in each mounting assembly is rotated until the cam is firmly engaged with the cam spindle.
