Default Tour pack on my Wide Glide

Considering the wife and I are going to ride the Blue Ridge Parkway next week I decided to add some more storage. It really wasn't that hard. I used my sissy bar bracket as a template for the mounting points then cut the brackets out of some 1/8" plate. Made a couple of bends with a bench vise and a BFH. Drilled the four mounting holes and voila. After a short ride I had to extend the brackets to the rear by 2" so she could lean back a little. What do ya'll think?

Dude, who would have thought that would look so cool!! I never even considered a mod like that. As you can see my set up is a T-Bag which actually work pretty good, but your setup blows that away. I see those trunks on craigs list all the time. I am in.

Thanks man. I picked it up off eBay for $75. The entire process only took about 4 hours minus waiting for the paint to dry.
