Default RE: Space between backrests?

I had to work late and am on 12 hr grave shifts so I didn't get the sissy bar reading yet. The Tourpak is on and from the center of the passenger back rest to the rear lip of the fuel door is 38 inches. I'll try to get the other measurement tomorrow.

Default RE: Space between backrests?

I ordered one of these kits and it works great. About a 30 minute install and the extra inches make a world of difference. When I called him he put mine in the mail and told me to do the same with a check. Had it in two days. Great guy to deal with.

Give this guy a call -

George Anderson
Moline, IL
309-762-6291

He makes a tour-pak relocation kit that is allot better then anything else out there, and allot easier to install.

$95 Shipped

It allows you to use the stock position (remove George's kit, 10 bolts out, 5 bolts in), or swich between 1.25" back and 2.5" back by removing 5 bolts and putting them back in at the new location. This can be useful if you ever expect to ride with different passengers.

This kit can't be beat............hands down. I have it installed on my bike in the 2.5" back position.

The distance from the center of the pad on the sissy bar w/removable mount is 40 inches. Hope this helps...
