yeah after i made my screen name i was like 'Dout' (homer) recently got a matching tour pak for the Custom bags. looks real good and got a killer deal on it and the mount ($400) installed! not really quick disconnect since i have a corbin seat and the back lip interferes with the seat, but i dont see why i would ever take it off and no one ca really steal it since it has to be unbolted to come off. BONUS! love the extra space since you cant even stuff a half helmet into the saddlebags! who thought that up?! rain gear and tools and rags are about all you get in there. oh well loving the bike, best bike HD makes!

The ONLY thing that I'm not fond of on the RKC are the tube tires. Just cuz they're a bee-otch to repair if you break down in the middle of nowhere.

The bars are Heritage style bars. I like the looks of the wire wheels, but don't like the idea of being completely stranded if the tire goes flat. Luckily, my bike had the cruise on it when I bought it. I love that feature!!!! Those long highway trips are a breeze with the cruise control.

Here's a different pic showing how the bars look on it. Far more comfortable than stock, but I still wish they were about 2" taller. I'm 5'11" tall.





With the stock bars right after I got the bike. Note the arm and hand position..




Sorry for the hijack guys.

Love my Classic...The leather bags really make it look "Old School".
