Looking for ideas for tour packs or racks on road kings? I have the standard side hard bags as a start.....I want to load on tent, sleeping bags, etc etc

thanks...

 

.........my bike waiting for me to get off work and pick it up....

 

You'll wanna go with the hard TP...

 

I'm told the rear HP will be about 45 days away...must be painted.....about 1200 dollars when the dust settles for parts/HP.....

May get one during the winter months...

Anyone know about chrome storage racks.. .something to bungy soft bags to ? Any pics?

Thx

 

Nice bike and set up by the way.......

 

I have one I got off e-bay for $250. Deals are out there. The only thing I had to get for it was a lock. It was 2-tone green/black when I received it. A friend in a marina shot it all black for me. Matches the Vivid Black perfect. My last bike was a FLHTC, so I missed the tour pac on occasion. I use it mostly during the cooler months to hold gear and when traveling, otherwise it is in the shed. Takes about an hour to put on/take off.

 

good idea about a used one...I guess if the dealer is going to get it painted ... a Marine shop can that too....I'll have a look see...

 

Got mine on ebay, painted it myself. Total cost was right around $600. Got a quick detach but haven't taken it off since I installed it.

 

I had the same idea as you and found a luggage rack to add to my passenger backrest. See pic. I found one from someone on this forum. Motherwell makes one for Road Kings and is 140.00 w/free shipping on ebay. I haven't had a chance to take a trip yet, but I think you could get just as much stuff stacked and bungee'd on a rack instead of a tourpack, especially if $$ is an issue.

 

You did a very nice job. It almost looks like the Firemen Edition with the fairing traded for a Road King windshield and fuel tank.

Thanks for your public service.
