In reply to Jimmy the Kid. It is part that goes under the pak that bolts to the actual pak. It also bolts to the detachable tour pak. Norm

Great review,
I am currently working on a similar addition to my 2010 FLHX. So far I have purchased a King Pak, Backrest, Mounting bracket, and mounting platform from ebay spent under $400 bucks. The King pak I bought is an older fiberglass model still in great shape but had to have it painted at a local shop, that cost me $300 but it is a perfect match. I noted in your pictures you posted, that aside from the detachable platfrom there appears to be another part between the platform and the pak (it seems to be like a round tube) but I could not enlarge the pic to take a closer look can you advise what that is?

Nontheless, My project is about complete coming in under $900 bucks and its a great addition.

I have been fighting the tour pack on my 2003 FLHT since installing it in 2003.
The vibration from the bike continually vibrates the latches off; the vibration has cracked the lid at the front hinge; and now one at a time the upper latches have vibrated off breaking the plastic off.
The tour pack latch system is pot metal, and the plastic box and lid cannot withstand the vibration my bike puts out. Other tour packs are even a lesser quality. I am going to build one from Texallium so I can color key it. Quality is NOT part of Harley’s tour packs from the 2003 era.

Yolanda you failed to state if you have a fairing on your Road King, or if the saddlebag speakers were your primary speakers. I am not sure if they make speakers for the chopped tour pak. You may want to talk to Biketronics at http://www.biketronics.com to see if they have something that could be adapted.

If you do have a fairing with speakers, you may want to try an amplifier.

If you are removing a removable tour pak there is no bracket, just docking points. If you are removing the Tour Pak from the permanent mount you are S.O.L. The only option of to go with a removable setup.

I think the lock is mandatory if you are going to use a detachable tour pak. If you don't have the lock setup someone can just come and steal your thousand dollar plus setup.

The lock does its job. It is real tight getting the special key in to unlock it but it does unlock. I suppose Harley Davidson could have designed it better, but the way it is does make it harder for crooks to get to as well.

It has been a while, but I believe they are. Your best bet is to call a Harley dealership and confirm the parts list before you order.

Sounds like you did good with your eBay purchases. I have also heard eBay can be good for these types of purchases. I looked as well. I did not find what I wanted at the time, and did not really want to go through the hassle of repairing parts. However, I am sure that people who want to go this route can save tons of money.

Mark I am a biker lawyer, not a parts dealer. You may want to contact Harley Davidson or some other vendor.

Hey Tom I was in the Air Force once upon a time!

You got lucky not having to drill the holes for the passenger backrest. Looking back on it now, it was kind of a bitch.

With respect to a radio, I bought the Harley Davidson Advanced Sound System for mine, as the first upgrade I did to the bike.

If I had to do the stereo all over, there is no doubt that I would go with a Biketronics solution. Their URL is http://www.biketronics.com/touring.html#RRPackages

You get to use all of the stock Harley Davidson controls, yet you get an Advanced Sound System that has many more features than the Harley Davidson system for a lot less money.

Let us know what you do!

Mike I used my Harley Davidson Shop Manual to figure the lock setup out. It is not just something that you can figure out, trust me. You can and should buy a shop manual for your motorcycle. It is just a good thing to have. I would like to post a copy of the instructions and/or diagrams for the lock, but that would be a copyright violation on my part since the book is copyrighted.

Congratulations on getting a great deal on your tour pak,

Norm
