Thanks Mike, I'll go read up on them as well.

So I took a look under under my Tour-pak this evening after a ride. I looks like there are 3 possible positions, if I was looking at the correct indents. It looks like it may be on position 1 of 3, as if my pak is the furthest forward currently...am I wrong? Here are a couple pics of what I am seeing. Kind of dark this evening, so please bare with me on the pics.

Well you would think by your pics that you could move it back 2 more positions but that was not the case on my 2013 Ultra. Mine was in the same position as yours but when I took the liner out there was only two sets of mounting holes in the tour pack and it was already on the front set ( farthest back ) from the factory.
So I went with the George Anderson Tourpack relocation kit. Very well made and works great.

Some pics of the bracket. Very well made and George was a great guy to deal with. Shipped it out the day I called and said just mail me a check later. Now that's service.

I didn't take any before pics but my Hammock seat was a pain to put on because rear speaker were smashed into seat. This is on the first of 3 positions on the George Anderson bracket. Hope this helps.

I put the Kuryakyn one on.
It was kind of a bitch to put on for me anyway.
It moves forward 1 inch and will move back ward 3 inches, so 4 all in all.
Depending on how you want it?

We have it adjusted to where we want it now and will probably leave it like that.
It slides back and forth though for adjustments, but stays locked once you get it where you want it.

Thanks cmzx9r! Looks good, and you are only on the first position? Looks like the seat sets much better within the rear speaker pods. I know my hammock was a little snug, and it was a bit of a challenge to get to the rear seat screw. This should make it much easier and we'll enjoy the roomier ride. I think I'm gonna have to give George a call to purchase his bracket. Good info. Thanks for sharing!

Another option is the one I used on this bike:

Very easy install and a quality product. I used the George Anderson one on my last bike and it, too, is very nice, but it costs more too.
