I have a seat strap hanging in my shed though.

Contrary to what the catalog says, the grab rail fit fine on my '08 with rear speakers. Maybe if the tour pak is mounted as far forward as you can get it, the speakers might touch the rail.

It's for your wife or girlfriend to hold onto when their not messing with the boys. They just both can't do it at the same time unless your a better man than I am.

It's for those who have little to no mechanical aptitude to remove so they can feel like they actually did some work to their bike!!!
