Well, I bit the bullet and went for a King TourPak to match the Hard Saddlebags for my SERK. I ordered it in primer and will send it out to Paint By Gene for a matching paint job.

I ordered the whole package from Jenny at Charlies HD. KTP in Primer, all required hardware and key matched lock, Detachable TP Rack, TP Spoiler in Primer, Contoured TP Luggage Rack, TP Liner Bag, TP Interior light kit, TP & Saddlebag Organizer Kit, and all required mounting hardware. Grand total with shipping is $1350. The seat-matching Corbin Flame-stitched Trunk Rest is another $239. About $1600 plus paint for the whole setup. I hope Binx really likes having a TP now!

Of course, I'll get pictures for ya'll when the whole thing is completed. Be patient, it'll take a few months for this to come together.

And it's still not a FD and never will be!

Hoist!

Neal didn't you start w/the KTP before you got the Fairing? We aren't seeing a pattern develop here are we?

While you're at it Howie, might as well get it all over with at once. http://www.hoppeindustries.com/spstrhb.html

That's right Howie, remember it's all about Binx and her comfort while riding. She wants tunes.

I just love it when someone reads my mind 

Anyone remember Elvis before the croc bags and seat ?  Can't help but think that's where Howie's headed.

Remember Gary, they're in helmets all the time now.  She can just velcro one of those small iPods and a pair of little digital speakers to the back of his lid.  All the controls will be handy and she'll finally be putting his noggin to good use !





(I'll be damned, just noticed on the calendar that it's "Yank Howie's Chain Day!")

Or Dragonfly?? I'm sure Neal could assist you in deciding which would be the right one.

Oh he!! yea!!! Howie would need to get speakers in the KTP, and then she could borrow JR's speakers for Howie to wear for front speakers pointed back to her.

Howie, Congrats on your award and more importantly the great trip that came with it. Question for you re your seat. When you talked to Corbin did they tell you they were going to put flames on the 07 SERK seat? As you may recall Becky with Corbin in Florida had originally told me they would do that. She was to have sent me some samples so I could decide if I wanted to try and match the braids/welts on the seat to my bike. Anyway I had not received the samples so when I was at a rally last weekend I asked the Corbin rep about the seats and samples. Corbin rep (John, also from Florida) stated that the new company policy was "no flames" on the 07 SERK seat. He stated that the 07 SERK seat would come with the stripe that is pictured on their web site, though we did have a choice as to the material for the stripe. Anyway was just wondering what the heck was going on as I keep getting conflicting stories. jj

Holy crap! Not!

Don't think I wasn't prepared for the onslaught! The Fairing just isn't going to happen. I think ya'll already know that. Neal secride it best:

so rider forward its a Road King and BSR back its a FD

So that's that!

Now for the music part. You know I've been alluding to that GPS thing recently, right? Well that will probably ultimately be the solution. Remember my buddy Andy? I'll attach the pics from the Mem Day BBQ as a reminder. That was a great installation. Bullet Turn Signal Housings with Speakers, mounted backwards under the handlebars like the original signals; Garmin Zumo with XM and sattelite weather; a 40 Watt Chrome Amp that looks a little like a voltage regulator, mounted to the downtubes, where there's already a mount for it. All done with hidden wires (mostly). Andy's good at that chit. I'll ask him to help me out. That will resolve that and get me into the 21st Century I guess!

So you see, I haven't strayed from my love for the RK, it'll still be a real motorcycle (from the front seat anyway, hehe), and that's as close as it's getting to being a FD!

YOU FD GUYS KILL ME!

Hoist!
