My son is ready to go from my wifes trike to my bike and I can have a tourpack from a friend thatgot a paint set. The problem is it is just the tour pack hasno pad, no brackets. I want to get the quick release and docking hardware but is there a seperate plate needed to mount the tourpack to the quick release? If so any one know a part # looked in the catalog and don't see it.

 

There is a plate on the inside needed but all of the outside brackets will come with the kit.

 

The plate is it in the tourpack? and do you know what it is called I would like to order the partsonline.Thanks

 

Best thing to do is take it to a dealer and they can tell you exactly what you need for it. Bryan

 

I changed my FLHTC to a detachable and the plate inside will work with it.

 

If you are talking about the plate that is in the bottom of the tour pack it is not available last year when we looked for one. You can make one out of some sheet metal or aluminun. I can send you the thickness if you need it.

 

Chris: The parts you need are: (1) mounting hardware, PN 53804-06, list 54.95; and, Detachable Two-Up Tour Pak Rack, PN 53276-04, list 179.95. The detachable rack will come with a U-shapedchrome tube with five holes and is sandwiched between the bottom ofthe tour pak and the rack; ituses five bolts with four usedin the rack, and the fifth at the center/rear of the tour pack to providesupport for the rear of the tour pak. Take a look at pages 412 and 414 of the '08 parts and accessories catalog.

You should also purchase a "grommet" for the right side hole in the SG filler strip; same grommet that's used in the left side, antenna hole. It's PN 59778-06.

Notsurewhere the discussion of the metal plate locatedat the bottom and inside the TP came from, but since the TP came from an EG Classic, the plate will be there. The plate is removed in order to have access to the five holes needed to install the five screws previously mentioned.

The two-up racks are on ebay, but be careful if you buy there because thereis hardware included with the rack that may or may be included in the listing.

Nice friend, by the way; hope your son enjoys the ride. Backrests show up often on Ebay; I got lucky a couple of weeks ago and purchased, not "won," a new '06 backrest and pad for 108 bucks.

 

I have a spare metal plate out of the bottom of a tour pak I just replaced on my bike. It has the weld studs still in tact for mounting purposes. I should have the nuts laying around somewhere as well. Although you would be better off to go to your local hardware store and buy some chrome 5/16" nuts to use. It looks a lot better.
If you wantit and I can figure out how to send it COD, your welcome to it.
Dan.

 

I sent you a pm and thanks to all for the help.
