If your considering a detachable tour pak to please the bride think of buying both the solo & 2 up mount. My bride only gets on the back once or twice a year. Most of the time I'm using the tour pak as the rider back rest. When she wants to go for a ride takes about 15 minutes to switch to 2 up.

Congrats to you on a great outcome for a terrible start to your 2014 experience You handled it professionally and were rewarded accordingly. Great that Harley stepped up and that you are still among the faithful. Lots of happy miles to you!!

Been following your other thread as well. Good to hear they made it right by simply replacing the bike with IMO a better ride. I myself bought the Blackened Cuyenne Sunglo or as I call it Root Beer Brown with Metal Flake and love the SGS. You'll definitely enjoy the ride without the extra trim and tourpack. If you want to go that route and have the $ it's not to hard to make it all removable to use as needed. That's what I did, aftermarket tour pack for the long solo trips where I need more storage, passenger backrest where I need wife support, rider backrest w/ leather luggage bag sitting on the passenger seat with luggage rack for bouncing around town. All detachable and can swap in minutes depending on how I want to ride on that particular day. Enjoy your new SGS!

Glad it worked out for you in the end!

YOU my friend did it right, no name calling, etc, etc.

Karma and Murphy's law is a real nasty B&%#H, and neither of them went against you!!!


Now get out there and truly ENJOY your new scoot!


Ride On,

YB

Congrats and great to see you back.
If you want to make the wifey happy you can always do a removable TP whenever you want.
See you around buddy...
