Default Detachable Tour-Pack Hardware

I have recently bought an 09 Ultra Classic and was wondering if I should install the detachable hardware that allows me to remove my tour pack. I think this would suit most of my riding needs and sure make the rear part of the bike easier to clean. I can buy the hardware and have it installed for $800. Anyone have any thoughts as to where this is worth the money?

Keep your fixed mount. There is all kinds of fitment and tolerance problems associated with the 09 tour pack removable rack. The Chinese don't have that down pat just yet..
