Been thinking of adding this to my baby, but there is one thing I have a concern about. My Ultra is 2 tone red with pinstriping. Do these color-matched spoiler also come with the pinstriping or no? Would look out of place if they were only solid color.

The link you have shows the tour-pak spoiler. You have to choose which color you want and it's one solid color with no stripe. Mine was a perfect color match and it was easy to install.

The saddlebag spoiler/LED's are too small for any meaningful two-tone w/pin stripe paint scheme, IMO. My good friend has them on his '06 EG Classic, fire red pearl/black and they look good and provide additional rear lighting to the bike for run/brake light.

 

I like both the tourpak and saddlebag spoilers. Been thinking about putting them on my ride. For those of you that have them, were they hard to install and connect to a power supply?

 

It's the first option I added to both of my Ultras. Solid color. Not sufficient surface area for pinstriping. One of my favorite options.

Plus it gives you the opportunity to drill holes in your new $20,000+ scoot. That feeling never changes.

 

[sm=funnypostabove.gif]; nothing like drilling holes in a perfectly good 800+ USD TP and the lids of perfectly good 650 ea. saddlebags.

I have both the TP spoiler and saddlebag spoilers. Easy installation.

 

As far as installation goes I found that brad type drill bits are the way to go. They won't slip or skate across the surface messing up your paint. The bags and tour-pack are a nylon material and easy to drill unlike fiberglass that can flake off and splinter. The spoiler is a piece of cake just check and recheck your location and make sure it's where you want it. I can't speak to the bag spoilers as far as wiring but the mounting would be easy to do. Here's a picture of a brad bit.

So since I have pinstripping I prolly should pass on the tour pac and saddlebag spoilers..is that what I am hearing?

 

No, I don't think anyone is saying that. We're saying you don't need pin-striping on the spoiler it wouldn't look right. I don't think there's anything wrong with adding the spoiler, in fact I like it.

Ride well,

Jim
