RE: Relocated Chopped Tour-Pak
Fast Eddie: I've read about the fitment problem of the Corbin solo seat (at least some of them anyway; perhaps not all of them) with the solo detachable rack. I'm considering a Corbin Classic solo and if the solo rack hits it, I'd see if I could grind off a portion of the front of the rack to eliminate the rubbing. Don't know if this is a feasible solution since I have no idea how much material would need to be removed to eliminate the rubbing. If I didn't like the look of the rack after that, would see if a local plater or powder coat guy could improve the cosmetics of the rack.
It's a bummer to have to consider giving up a seat that you are comfortable on and looks great.[:@]
Hope you find a solution.

Fast Eddie,
Looking good from my angle... also noticed in your other pics, it appears you have lowered the rear, is true?
Thinking about same movement so better distance between me an wife on longer rides.
Ride often & ride safe,
Dave

Hey Fast Eddie, how did you support the rear of the tour pak that is hanging off the back? Any worries with it cracking? Great look bike.
