I just purchased a tour pak for my road king. I tired to use a 1996 Electra Glide Classic mount but it would not fit in between my shocks and the frame. Does anyone know how to mount the pak to a 1995 FLHR frame. I have found some brackets on EBAY that are a tube type rail that mounts somewhere on the frame (not sure where) and the back under the pak is supported by the license plate mount. Will that fit my bike?

Thanks

 

Can't help with your specific question, but why not stop by an HD store parts counter and ask the parts guy to pull the parts books for 1995 and 1996 Touring Models? Check the part nos. in the '95 book for your RK and EG that would be involved in mounting the tour pak on the EG and compare them to your RK. Then compare those part nos. in the '96 book to see what changed, if anything. I'm surprised the '96 parts wouldn't work on your '95 only because the major change occurred in '97 and, probably lile you, would have thought the '96 parts would work on your '95.

It's a fair amount of homework, but you will know what you need. You may be able to order what you need from HD.

I had to do similar research for many of the changes I made to my '04 police model EG since HD provides zero fitment information in the Parts and Accessory catalogs for putting tour paks, luggage racks, etc. on police model EG's and RK's.

Good luck with your project.

Thanks I will give that a shot.
