IKR? I took that pic and a couple others a couple weeks ago to post here in HDF, just haven't yet.

I couldn't tell if it was a 2x12 or 2x10 and now I know why, it was right in between.

That's exactly what I'm looking for - a hitch/receiver.

My brilliant hitch mod dimmed quickly when I tried to reinstall my panniers and there was no clearance. At this age I should be smarter - a lot smarter. Anyway . . . if you think there is a chance yours would fit, I'm certainly willing to give it a shot.

Mornin'! Yeah I'll dig up the bag of bolts and instructions here in a
bit but yeah I kinda remember it fitting more than just the FLHT's.

Take your time. I'm heading out for a week tomorrow. Looks like great weather for a short trip here in the east.

Few more pics here. Did find the unopened bad of nuts and bolts too.

Not sure if it will fit on your FXRT though. I looked into it too and see you are having a hardtime finding one. I looked and couldn't find any either...weird!

I gotta get for a bit but if you think you could make it work I'd send it to you and pay shipping for a 100 bucks through paypal.
