TinFoil - to add to what you've already read: You don't need to use the longer bolts and spacers that the directions state for Road King Classicsfor the rear docking area. At least I didn'tfor an '07. I dutifully put them on as instructed but it pushed the bags out WAY too far. So, I took them off and there's plenty of clearance using the "standard" bolts the intructions use for "non-FLHRCs".
did my first side in about an hour. then stood back and realized that since i followed the directions, i had the wrong bracket on that side. putting it on the second time was about 20 min. then i was an old pro on the other side. 3rd times a charm, right?
i had looked over 07RoadGlides stuff before i tried it too. good instructions
dont be afraid if you have left over parts. you should.
Man am I glad I looked here before getting the parts to do this job! Think I saved myself 4 hours in advance and probable 8 - 10 beers...lol. Can any of you post pics of your bikes with the sissy bar on? I bought an '07 Road Glide yesterday and really want to put the detachable sissy bar on. I would like to see what the bike looks like with it in place.
I have a 2007 electra glide cvo. Has the quick disconnect mounts for the tour pack. From what Im gathering is there needs to be a similar setup in front of these. I still want to be able to use the tour pack if I take the sissy bar off. Is this possible. Does anyone have any pictures of this? What part number are you all discussing in here?
