I went with the King for my '12 FLHXSE3, because, whenever it's on, I'll be on 'tour' and need the extra room it provides over the Chopped....it's not on all that often, though.

Let's see some pics !

That's a beauty.  Thanks !

Hello Rat, the pics you saw of the pack off the bike were mine I attahed the one i use for my screen login so you can get a better look.  All total with some extras added it ran about 2600 for the king tourpak, backrest and all the hardware.  I have the multi point so i can packless, just a backrest or solo.  if no backrest or pack then i have the black mount covers also.  All my hardware is factor black or powdercoated black, my son in law does powercoating so it helps in the $$$.  Hope this helps.

Thanks for the pic! 

Mine is ordered!

I went with black hardware, forward mount (solo), and the small chopped backrest. 

I will post pics too in a month when it arrives. 

I assume I will add break lights and maybe even the king back rest and speakers one day.

Also:  I was told by Harley that there is a software upgrade for our stereo that adds a fader.  That may push me to buy the rear speakers now.
I believe that without a fader to put more sound to the back than the front, I would not hear the back.

I had rear speakers on a previous bike (Victory) and using the fader to drive the back speakers really made an awesome full surround sound on the bike.  It was great.

Anyone done this upgrade?  Fader experience? 

Thanks

Hi , nice picks and a great thread:)
I do have the 2012 RGC in Maple and will add on a TP, one question to Rat Monkey, are alle the hardware genuine HD parts? I will also go for the foward mount.
Greetings from Norway:)

Hello.  Yes, everything I bought is all Harley.

I am still waiting for the box to arrive.  I have about 2 weeks to go.

I bought the box, the 4 point dock, and the forward mount rack.
I also added the black hinges/latches. (dealer is letting me buy those, and swap out for chrome ones that will come stock)
the box does already come with the upgraded hardware, I just wanted to switch to black.

You also get to buy a lock for the lid, and a lock to lock the box to the bike.  And a liner.  heh heh, it never ends.

I had the rack powder coated black (they only come chrome..) and I had the lower side(s) edge trim painted black (box comes with chrome strips there)

I also am having the 4 point dock painted to match the brown.

I did not do any of the brake lights or running lights yet.  They bolt on, and can be done later.

I also did the small backrest like someone else showed on here.  I liked that streamlined look.  However, if I upgrade the stereo system I may get the bigger backrest and the speaker pods...

I will post many pics when I get it all done.

(Was just informed we can have new software downloaded to the stereo to add a fader. I would want that if I added rear speakers)

I will post many pics when I get it all done.

Sorry, I think I quoted myself.  hahaha

At least I verify my sources...

I Was trying to add that the dealer told me there is an update for our stereo that adds a fader (front/back speaker control)

If I were to add the rear speaker pods and large backrest I would want that fader to make the rear/surround sound work best..

Onward!

Dayne that is one beautiful rig you have there  but you know I'm a little partial  . I sure would like to have your TP.  Who made your back rest attached to your TP?

[dayne66]

That's just the basic Harley backrest.....and it turned out to be  a really close match to the Mustang seat.
