I did that swap and posted progress here...this is what it looks like:



I couldn't be happier as I ride with the T Pak on a solo rack the the wrap around back rest got in my way when leaning the bike.

Default tour-pak

I am trying make my Ultra Limited less top heavy and am preparing to swap out the king tour-pak for a chopped pak and backrest. I have the backrest and am waiting for the tour-pak(30 days?). Already using the detachable mount.

Got my backrest and installed it. My tourpak was pretty beat up under the wrap around. I touched it in with some touch up paint, doesn't look too bad.
