Dont use the softbrake license plate treatment.  It is not the same as the one they use on the FLHT's.  The one for the RGU needs to fit in the hole for the tail light, and it causes the tail light to not fit flush.  I've lost my photos of mine, but the people at softbrake didn;t seem to care.


Use harley parts, like a road king or something.  Will look much better.  might cost more but looks really good.

I am in the middle of a "Pack off" on a limited. Using the same bracket mounted where the reflector was located on the turn signal bar. It will cover the top 1/3 of the CVO emblem. I am also adding a LED light hidden under the bar for plate illumination.

"Pops" that is looking slick. Really like the direction you are going.

Are you running a hidden CB antenna? I am looking at the JM hidden antenna now. Mine will be a much simpler look when the pak is off.  Smoke lens turn signals on the saddle bags, stock mufflers with fullsac baffles and a solo seat when the pak is off.

I have the Harley hidden stereo antenna in the fairing...I just rolled the CB antenna up under the seat I never use it anyway. Wife and I don't use the intercom either.

Hi Dave, I took a good look at your thread before I started the project...I went ahead and cut my wire harness to the tour pack and installed a 12 pin Deutsch connector from Wirecare.com...I purchased the $50 crimper and it worked perfect...Im going with the lighted plate bolts on mine instead of the lighted frame because I like the added brake light feature.

Will  be interesting to see the lighted plate bolts with added brake light feature.

Finally got some decent weather here in NE Ohio and was able to ride with the "Pack Off"...Ineradicable how much different the bike handles without the extra top weight. Just moving it around in the garage is a whole lot easier. I highly recommend this mod. and if anyone needs help with it let me know...Took a few good pics of what my RG looks like now.
