Thanks for the info I will be checking into this,did you put the kit on? By the way you bike looks bada$$ with the tour pack removed,that's the way i want mine to look when riding solo.Is that Zanotti HD in Butler.PA?. If you don't mind would you tell me what comes with the kit.

Kind of true.. but with the tour pack the cross member for the pack comes right across where the top of the plate is. You can still use the standard lay down but you will have to give it a bend backwards (pushing it towards the front of the bike) to give enough clearance. I used the old school tool 2 hands and some muscle and gently pushed it down a little more.

I just bought a HD laydown plate bracket for my 10 FLHTC, which has the detach kit. I'm hoping they say it doesn't fit because of the view. I don't want to bend anything, in case I don't like it.

Changed tail light with downward facing tag light lense and bracket for tag. works great. About a 15 minute or so install...
The standard bulb WILL melt this lens. I was advised by J&P customer service to replace the standard bulb with the LED alternative.
