I plan on building one like this guy did instead of buyng a King Tour Pac. I like the idea of keeping the weight of my gear lower to the ground for better handleing.

I've been pulling a Bushtec Turbo II(http://www.bushtec.com/) for the past few years... used it with my Heritage Classic and now with my EG Ultra. Don't even know it's back there... have to check mirrors from time to time just to make sure it's still there. Of course, you do have to take the time to adjust the air pressure in the suspension so the camber is correct... takes all of 2 minutes. GREAT customer service too! Family owned... made in Jacksboro,Tennessee for over 25 years.
