I thought about getting a tour pack re-locator but instead I found a smaller BSR. Works well so far! Of course if your married that might be more difficult...
You need to post instructions.......I haven't had any luck with anything less than 2 1/4.  :nixweiss:

G.A. ships it quick, has simple instructions and is a high quality product. Could not have asked for anything better. Took 30 minutes to install.    :bananarock:

Didn't notice any handling  difference with the tour pak moved back.   It's a really great product and make a huge improvement for my bsr and me.  :)

I've noticed after adding the George Anderson plate and moving the tour pac back as far as possible and carrying a twenty pound bag of dog food it did make the bike feel different. I thought it would wheelie easy with it moved back and extra weight, so I tried... nope about the same. It did feel different, but could not make it actually change in handling much. Yes I love bringing the front up!

A nice bump in the road and a good second gear shift and I can bring her up to the exhaust pipe in the rear. I wish I could get some pictures of that. The Yamaha rider's look on his face one day was probably better than the bike up picture. Oh, yeah the skateboarders near my house also had that same look once. My wife says don't do that with me on it! These are awesome machines, can't wait to upgrade the camshafts. Here I go changing the post...

I like the idea of the kuryakyn being able to adjust it.  It says on their web site that it won't fit with the amp.  Has anyone done it with out relocating the amp?  If so do they have any pictures with the amp still on there and the adjusting rack.  Thought the handles might hit the amp connector.

I had the Kuryakyn kit on my 2004 Ultra Classic with the Harley add on amp. Originally the amp was mounted to the tour pack with 4 bolts. When I installed the relocation kit I simple moved the trunk back and the amp forward and remounted the amp just using two bolts. It worked great for 80,000 miles and the 8 years that I had the bike. I know Kuryakyn says it will not work but it will.
