Solo tour pack mount
I have just read lately the moco makes a bracket that allows the tour pack to be mounted as a back rest for the driver. It is a "solo tourpack mounting kit".
Anyone have one and care to comment?
I am having a helluva time tracking down much info in the catalog, except verbiage. No pix, no part #s that I would trust. Before I go to the stealer and ask for one I would like some feedback if they are all there cracked up to be, what the cost was, and what they look like.
Thanks in advance,
Bob

O.K.
I found the part # and illustration in the catalog. Still would like some feedback on would you buy and install again? Was it worth it? Got pix?
Thanks again

I use a solo mount a lot when I travel and it makes a great back rest plus keeps the added weight closer to you. Mounts on the front shocks and the docking hardware used for the passenger backrest. Requires the use of a solo seat. It looks similar to the two up detachable mount but with the front slots a little wider to reach the front sock mounts.

i've been using this set up since 2007. i don't need a passenger pillion, or a back seat. the wife rides her own bike so my bike is configured for my comfort. yes, i would do it again. in fact, i have done it on my 2007 roadking, my 2010 roadglide custom, and now on my 2013 cvo roadglide.

I wondered about the seat thing, for the Mrs and I use the Sundowner, but then I bought the Badlander for looks and thought maybe that would give enough clearance. The Badlander by itself sux for there is NO back support, and leaves me sliding all over.
I thought if there was clearance, the tour pack would help keep me located as well as add back support.
Thank you gents for the picks, it actually looks pretty good for it adds a little symmetry
to the saddle bags being directly above them. Thanks again,
Bob

I use one w/ a chopped TP and like it. V/ comfortable. I added saftey locks (not HD) to the quick release, as otherwise it can be popped off in moments. I use the smallest HD backrest pad, which I had recovered in the same leather as is in on my C&C seat. One day I'm going buy another back rest and install it upside down and below the standard mount in order to provide lumbar support.

Here's the solo setup on my 2012 Street Glide..
I have the mount, two point docking kit and the Mustang solo seat for sale in the classified section....or PM me for details...
I like it, but I've traded the SG in for a new Ultra Classic and kept the mount and docking kit...no tourpac.
