I started off in this forum stating that I was not in love with my 2024 Road Glide 3. I've tempered those remarks some but it's still not a love relationship between my trike and myself, however it's getting better. I said I had done a few modification to my RG3 and that I would post a picture of my RG3, so here it is. It's some what obvious that I like the color black as a bike/trike color. Near furture, the center gas tank cover will be replaced (as soon as it arrives from Advanblack), I'm not a fan of the stock gas tank cover. Also, I removed most of the Harley-Davidson badging, I will at some point put the bar & shield on the side of the gas tank.Untitled.jpg

Good looking trike. The bar and shield logo will look good on the side of the tank.

What’s that mount for the tour pack??
It's a metal mount that matches the mount point in the trunk lid for a luggage rack. I drilled the lid, and added round rubber bumpers then bolted the the tour pack mount then mounted the tour pack. I manufactured a locking arm inside the trunk so the lid does not open all the way. It works perfectly, I say that with some pride because for the longest time I could not figure out how to open the trunk lid without holding the tour pack in one hand while putting things in the trunk with the other hand.
 
Dang so it’s something you made? I’ve been looking for a solution. I’ve seen one floating around but I don’t like how it looks in the pictures.

The mount that's shown in the URL you sent me. Where this mount would lock into my RG3; the OEM covers that where this mount would be inserted; I used the left cover and drilled a hole into it then placed a rubber washer in the hole and ran the wire harness I designed thru that cover and up into the tour pack. This wire harness powers the tour pack tail lights, stop lights as well as turn signals.
