Remove the speaker grilles. There is a connector just behind each one. 1 minute, tops.
It's more of a PITA to disconnect the aerial(s)...
BTW : beautiful, beautiful bike....

Go for it! If for you the deal is worth it do it! Besides the price consider how much you will enjoy the bike comparing to the snowmobile.
you can get a quick mount for the tour pack so you can put your trunk on and off in 5 min anytime you want.
difference between your bike and a SG will also be the 2 front auxiliary lights and the mirrors which on SG are integrated in the fairing and on the EG are on the handlebar!
enjoy your rides!

I had 3 deutsch connectors installed under my seat for the speakers and the lights --- take off seat , unclip 3 connectors remove tour pak - very clean and extremely simple - the wires go with the tour pak

Thank you!! Yes I checked Craigslist religiously for years when this bike popped up. PO spent alot of money on upgrades & the pictures he posted really weren't very good. Had to see it in person to appreciate all the details. Love the tour pak & use it all the time but I'd like to see how it looks removed.

Stripped down Ultra.... I did it on my 2012 Ultra. Streetglide front fender, all new body parts or painted. Since this pic, I also added an Advanblack stretched tank cover over the existing tank.

While that's true if you're on a boat a larger boat sitting motionless off to one side is less likely to suddenly pull out in front of you at the last second as you go past it.
