Default tour pak on a nighster

Has anyone put a tour pak on a nightster. the tour pak rack looks like it sets up to high above the rear fender but have never seen this on a nightster. I have the solo rack and was wondering if i could mount it on that some how. What yah think. PERK

I have seen 2 Nightseters with the tour packs and I have to say they look gross! I don't even like side bags on a Sporty. The point of a Nightster is to look like a bobber/bar hopper-not a tour bike.

+1 don't do it man!! don't grampa out yer ride man, the only worse chick repellent will be 2 throw on a geezer glide fairing, wow man i can't believe it when someone buys a sportster then turns it into a geezer glide?!
Go fabricate or buy you a kick *** sissy bar you can tie all yer travel gear onto, it'll be cheaper n at least you'll look cool. i'd rather look cool then look like gramps...just my 2 cents. oh yeah some throw over yer shoulder leather saddlebags are cheap n very cool, it always gets chicks going when i'm walking away from my harley with saddlebags over the shoulder for some reason, dunno maybe it gives a clint eastwood trip? but they dig it thats all i know.

Go for it. If you want to ride and carry a ton then go for a BIG container, not a wimpy bag that won't hold your sunglasses.

What good is a bike if it has to stay in the garage because there's not enough room to carry a loaf of bread home from the store? Come to think of it, I guess that's why so many bikes are sitting at home in the garage.
