I'm jealous about Texas weather!

I have a friend that rides that says the same thing about the Tour Pak. I'll probably get one in the future. Right now, I'll have to settle for light rings and a sissy bar 'til my bike comes in. Someone asked for an update of extras, so I'll post a list with pictures soon.

You read my mind. Before the bike rolls out of the shop, it'll be modified:




Handlebars that are easier to reach (anybody have the "reduced reach" bars for $50, p.458, part #56152-04?)

Sundowner seat for the RK Classic - Matching backrests - removeable sissy bar on rear

Possibly replace the stock saddlebag protector bars with tapered for passenger comfort

Screamin' eagle slip-on mufflers or V&H or....??? I'm planning on going to some bike shows in the spring to look & listen. I like the online sound clip of the V&H oval slip-ons--low and "lugging" sound--which may have to do with gearing and revs more than the actual muffler. Can't tell with sound clips anyway.

Stage 1 breather kit w/ remapping

Anti-theft with siren
All of the above

Don't forget the "BLING, BLING"[sm=bling.gif]

Love the bling!

I think I'm getting the same passenger floorboard covers for Christmas, and the passing lamp rings.

Is that a RK Classic style Sundowner seat? If so, are those the matching backrests?

Thanks.
