Has anyone tried this product? I've a new (to me) Freewheeler and I'd like to add a Tour-Pack from my HD Touring bike to the trike. This product looks intriguing. I'd appreciated your opinion(s). Thanks.

Can not help but it looks nice.

Very interested but seems very expensive. Give it time if they don’t have a patten it will get copied.

On top of the $550 you would still have to buy a tour pack. Advan Black sells those for $700 with back rest. They offer color matching, not sure what that cost.

I saw one on a bike, posted on it. The big question remains is the load capacity. They post a lot of disclaimers with no load capacity. I understand that there is a metal plate under the body for support, but how much can it support along with the stock mounting system. Maybe a chopped tour pack like pictured on their website.

Yeah I would probably go with a chopped tour pack. Just for jackets and small items and keep heavier items in the trunk.

Lots real good to me also……………very similer to the 2010—2011 Harley FLHXXX. If anyone is interested I have a black chopped t/p in very good condition…… will prefer someone out northwest as they are quite heavy/costly to ship. Photo and add. info on requesr!

I truly like the idea but my only concern would be the vibrations. It appears to only mount at the front and then the mounted tourpack would be just hanging out behind on the frame. If the frame had a leg or something somewhere towards the rear to stabilize it, I think it would be better. Maybe I'm missing something with it.

Clever idea. But so were convertibles unless your a little 3 year old S.O.B. that had to stand on the seat instead of sitting down and got hit in the head anytime dad raised or lowered the top. Still hate convertibles to this day when I stand on the seat.

Been thinking about this way too much lately. Last night I thought with some top cover modifications it would make a good doggie carrier/house to take my 2 pups with me when I ride. Cut half of the top back and install some leash holders, and a blanket inside.
I know they would be better passengers than my wife is, maybe even quieter.
Oops did I say that outloud?

I use the GQ Tech Mount. It works well.
Here is my post about it.

Tour Pak on a Freewheeler

Has anyone tried putting a tour pack on the new freewheeler? I wonder if Harley is making a kit to make it removable? It would be nice for longer trips.

I doubt Harley would make a kit for a FW tourpack. Design was never meant for one on that machine. The kit by gqtech makes it possible, I just don't know how the top lid will handle the stress points.

Load is 25 pounds for your tour pack ,info from manufacturer sent to me in a email. Yes 550.00 is a lot ! When you have to buy a tour pack, especially if it's anything but black, then it's painting . I decided screw that !

So Viking bags were my choice, since I have black quartz paint. I got the 69L hard case and lockable leather tour pack. It comes with two keys, and it just arrived today. It's a stylish, beautiful-looking, with a very nice back pad. This is what I'll be installing on mine. Check out their products. Another word about that rack: slip a heat shrink tube over the end where it goes into the Harley bracket. With the o-ring, the fit tightens up. There is a jig/bracket @ $45.00. I believe.

It fits into a notch in the frame. It has a bolt or screw you crank up to put pressure on your Harley backrest components. This takes the pressure off the body that the tour pack is now putting pressure on.Time will only tell how well all this will work
