Yup......$60 at the dealer. You have to space the attachment points out, cause our fenders are 1/2" thinner. But no big deal.

So those are for '97 and later bikes then? I'm interested in seeing it with the TP.

Just installed mine the other night. Its no biggy drilling new holes in the TP due to the metal plate in the floor of the pack. but before you drill look under the plate and move the wires over that are in the channels which is right where the QD rack lines up to. Mine is done and sturdy as it was on the stock mount. Gonna just shoot some silicone in the old holes to keep the water out. Can post pics if ya need

Holy dog**** that looks good to me. My wife thought I'd gone full retard with what I spent converting mine to flh. Im gonna show her this pic, just to prove her right. Ive been shopping for a flatside shovel or pan flh lately, havent broke the news to her yet (that its a sickness). If i get electric start (65+), I should be able to finaggle it without getting divorced (so she can take it out)
Side note, i got the rear speaker pods for this bike. I had to go to hg tunes pods, stock pods for 94 are like 4-1/4 or 4.5. Need recovered, little rub through. Got 4 speakers in "meh" condition if your interested.
Ther is indeed a difference between men and boys.

Thanks, but its a 50 footer right now......rattle can paint job. It will take a pretty good wetsand and polish to get it nicer.
