Workd4it: If you check your chrome strut covers, you will notice a cut-out on the inside portion of each; it's there to accommodate a chrome rack forpermanently mounting tour paks on Ultras and Classics. The accessory version does not have the cutaway for the bracket. If you look at yours, the cutaway exposes the black frame of the bike--a small detail, but it makes a difference IMO if you use the accessory version.

Thought I would post some pics of my scoot! I removed the rear grab bar over the tail light,chrome inner primary cover,Corbin solo, chrome strips on the top of the bags, and some spikes through out the bike! Sure wish I could talk the boss into a 21in. front wheel.


Bike looks good. BTW, just do the wheels, she'll never know.

Looks good I have the same seat (I think) Holywood Solo on my '05 Road King Custom. Even though it is a low profile solo seat I have ridden it on 500 mile one day rides with no discomfort.
