Here is my '16 Charcoal Denim SGS with an '06/'07 CVO quick detachable tourpak. I didn't want to worry about matching paint and "if" I ever did use it as a detachable I will not have to worry about scratches when handling it plus I think it works well with the blacked out look.
Just FYI for those that don't know, this type of CVO tourpak is smaller than a King, it only fits one FF helmet and a few other items not 2 FF helmets as the King version. I used it strictly for the leather look and powder coated the top rack and spears.
That looks sweet Rick!! Does it ride any different? Smoother or better? I have a 14 street glide. A buddy of mine with an ultra and I were discussing how different the ride was between a street glide and an ultra the other day. We're thinking the weight of the tour pack helps smooth out the ride.
Street Glides have different suspension than Ultras,, or at least they used to for sure back in the pre Rushmore days,, SG are lowered,, and typically stiffer suspension.
Looks really nice,great job.
Over the winter I am planning on putting a chopped box on my RGS but I think I'll pass on putting a rack on top of it, prefer to keep the lines clean.
Here is my 2016 with tour pack, all lights work, just need to get it painted Denim charcoal over the winter, wife loves it and i like the extra storage and extra lights for safety
Are your lights working as this?
corners: turn/brake/run
center: run/brake
I'm curious about that, because I added an US light bar and I get
corners: turn/run
center: run/brake
I got mine on (2014, though) and wired up just before Sturgis. I'm not going to run a rack; I think they look stupid.
To each his own...I bought a touring bike. Looks aren't everything and I bought my bike to ride more than to look at. It is rare that I am not using the rack for something on a road trip.
