Default Can you move a detachable tour pack Back?
Well, can you? Wife wants it back farther so she can lean back more like she does with the backrest, you know, so around town manuvers are a PITA for me. Gotta keep the princess happy.

Also, there is a second set of holes ready to drill out in the tour pack to move it back about 1.5" or so. I did this and my little queen is happy. And its free.

There are two sets of holes, one set further back than the other. What I did was use a drill press to drill a third set of holes back even further, and that really did the trick. Makes a big difference.

Here's a thread about George Anderson. He doesn't have a web site:

Here's one that works like a car seat:
