For those of you that have detachable tourpacks.....Where and how do you store it when it is off the bike? Seems like every time I take mine off, it manages to recieve a minor blemish from just laying around! Does anyone know of a wayor abracket that allows for the tour pack to be mounted on a wall, up out of the way?

Thanks

IF the search function was working you could search "tourpack racks" and you would find a home made set-up that uses your existing studs in your garage and threaded rod to hang it on your wall...that's what I did...cost about $20

I'll take pic of my set-up and post it tonight for ya

 

Get on ebaymotors and go into harley accessories. I got mine for around eighty bucks, but there's a couple of ones on there for less.
Mine holds all detachables and windshield, was also a neat rack to put your hard bags without scuffing them up when your cleaning bike, etc.

Here is the one I purchased back in December. I have a leather tour pack. This rack is heavy gauge steel with a black powdercoat finish.

I think they had it on sale for the holidays, but $159.00 is cheap insurance for $800 tour pack with hardware. I do not have any pictures, but it was easy to mount to the studs in the garage.

 

Here ya go....I used 3/8 threaded rod......nuts/washers......and 3/8 (inside diameter) plastic tubing......nailed the 2x4's to the wall and drilled the holes thru the 2 by's....measure the distance between the mount slots on the detachable stuff and make it that wide....make sure you drill as far away from the wall (on the 2 by or use 2 together to space it from the wall)
