Default Anyone riding a solo tour pak setup?

I just got my king tour Pak and I know I'm in the minority riding a solo setup. Now I already have a rider backrest on my Corbin seat so do I just plug the holes in my tour Pak where the passenger backrest attaches or if I attach a passenger backrest to the tour Pak will it set close enough to my solo seat to be practical for me to actually use as my backrest? I'm still waiting on my mounting hardware.

I plan on using it for travel only.

I've have my last two bikes set up that way. I love it, very comfy for me anyway.

What brackets are needed to do this? I have a Tour Pak with quick detach on my '08 RG and would like to try this out.

if you don't want the 'slider' then all you need is the solo tourpak rack. if you want the slider, i'm not sure who all makes them, but i know kuryakyn is one.

I'd definitely want the slider so my wife can still enjoy it. It found the HD non slider here: http://www.harley-davidson.com/store...ersion=desktop
