So I ordered - Will be here Thursday. Not exactly a Mechanic.....but surely capable. How much time will I need to put aside for the change, and any suggestions learned from those that have done this upgrade - Thanks

You might want to remove the rider's backrest if you intend just to roll the tourpak up onto the seat, I didn't and now I'm replacing the rear speaker grills.
A lot of us have used the extender in the link below or had one made by someone local.

So Again my question.....curious how this can be and it's not mentioned....not on the DK site or with the previous responses? I'm not mad at you guys, just surprised....
OK....maybe a little upset with DK for not addressing this issue....

So you will not get too upset again, here is a possible problem you might have. When I installed my Kuryakyn extender, I had to get a couple of new screws to install the new one. The part of the Kuryaykn that actually mounts to the tour pak is thicker than the stock pad, or at least on my 2016 TGU it was. YMMV. I didn't want the screws to cut through the material on the tab while tightening. So i found a couple just a little longer and used a small Chrome washer with them.
Well opinions are like butt holes, everybody has one. Yes, I obviously am not as demanding as your are. Have a nice week. BTW, I have always found DK instructions to be adequate and help just a phone call away if needed. Hope you have a great weekend.
