I got the tour park and two-up tour pak mount. That and a good sized bag on top can carry loads, almost as much as a touring bike. That isn't the tour pak in this pic, it's the bag I use on top of the tour pak when I want to load up.

I figured a bag on top would damage (scratch) the tour pak? No?

They make a small luggage rack for the tour pak you can set the extra bag on.

Speaking of seats, tell me more about your tractor seat. It looks good. Is it comfortable? Any concerns about the under seat area being open to the elements? My concern would be water and dirt ingress playing havoc with the electricals that run through there. Having said that a fair amount of dirt seems to be thrown up there from the rear tyre anyway.

The spring seat is the most comfortable seat I’ve ever ridden. The kit does include a cover to conceal the area underneath, but it wasn’t installed yet when the picture was taken. In any case, the gap between the two fender sections, where the shock passes, insures that the electronics are vulnerable to rain and muck thrown up by the rear tire anyway.

Thanks for the information. Could be an option for me. Sorry I forgot to ask who the manufacturer is?

Cheers,

Both the seat kit and the solo seat are right out of the H-D parts and accessory catalog. The mount kit is listed as being for the Slim, but it fits the Heritage with only minor modification. There's a bit of further modification required to adapt the Deluxe Solo Seat (52006-47B) to the mount kit.

I realize the saddlebags aren't very big and need to get creative packing all of our stuff.

Any suggestions on how to maximize the luggage capacity would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance!
The luggage you are looking at will do just fine
You can also add a tank bag for extra storage.
with those two options if you pack smart you will have what you need.
