Default Touring pack adjustment

Have a 2008 ultra classic Electra glide. I love my touring pack so not interested in a removal kit but would like to be able to adjust it back a couple inches. Me and the wife have realized that the older we get the rounder we have gotten. Weird how that works. So just looking for a little more room. Any ideas other than the gym?

look under the pack u will see 2 places that the pack can mount to the rack,they usually come in the forward position.pull the liner remove 4 bolts and move it back,you'll get about an inch. there are some aftermarkets that will allow up too 2.5 inches.

I will second the recommendation for the George Anderson re-locator kit. I have it on my bike and it is rock solid. George is a great guy to deal with and gives you a top notch product for the money.

Not home grown but a very good, less expensive option:

Kuryakin Quick Adjust Tour-Pak Relocator. Unlike the George Anderson relocator, you can adjust where the TP is quickly and without tools.
