[@daedaetinez6406]

Thanks man this video was a big help. Opened the box I ordered for my Road King and got scared 😱. Now after seeing your video I’m going to try it. Dude on the comments was right,, no old bike DIY stuff. Thanks man.

[@child805]

thanks i couldnt figure it out stumbled on to your video same as my 2000 road king thanks

[@MyllekeBas]

Thanks dude! Finally a video on the older models with an older docking kit! Thank you very much! Just what I needed ;-)

[@terrencewilliams4619]

In the video you did not state weather or not you used ( K ) from figure 8. It didn't appear that you did. Just want to confirm before I take my bike apart today.

@@terrencewilliams4619 - Part "K" comes with the passenger backrest kit. I'm sure you figured that out, just trying to help the next guy.

[@ryd-er-die6697]

Thanks for the video...I have a backrest that my dad used to have on his 06 SG that he took off before he passed in 2017 and I've been wanting to reinstall it since...tha is again👍

Better instructions than the included instructions

[@youngm911]

Nice video. Would you mind adding the part numbers you used in your description? I'm looking to do the same thing and and it would really help me out. Thanks!

[@bones661]

youngm911 It's Part Number 53803-06

[@WTDOOR63]

Where did you get bracket/ docking kit? Is that the part number for the kit?

[@giochim4559]

Grazie!!Sei un grande

[@tjrubi7463]

Where did you get that black bracket? My kit never came with that.....

[@bones661]

It came in the kit i bought. You might want to check the seller.

[@tjrubi7463]

@@bones661 will i need the black bracket?

[@raymondavitia1321]

So you didn’t need the rear bracket bar for your tour pack you were able to just use it like that than right

[@bones661]

Yep...

[@chromedome4243]

Ive got a 2002 electra glide and I've done everything just like this but the front piece of the sissy bar rocks backwards out of the front rubber gromet groove. The whole sissy bar rocks back and its useless. The back locks up fine but it keeps coming out of the front. Did you have this same problem?

[@bones661]

AndyMob Tactical no I didn't. As a matter of fact I had to force the front locking latches on it.

[@chromedome4243]

Big Bones me and the wife just tried it out for the first-time today and she almost fell off because it rocked all the way back. The back was still locked but it came out of the front groove. Yours fits flush all the way into the front rubber groove I still have a small gap where the front sissy bar opening isn't all the way in flush to the front rubber groove

[@bones661]

AndyMob Tactical where did you get the back rest from?

[@chromedome4243]

Big Bones ordered it online but i tried someone else's hd one snd it does the same thing. It don't fit tight enough in the front groove

[@johngumbert5253]

I am having the exact same issue with a kit from Hogworkz. Did you find a solution?

[@brentcool8391]

What did you get for a backrest? Or are they all made pretty much the same?

[@bones661]

I don't recall what I got. It was off of Ebay, so it really wasn't a name brand one.

[@brookebrawley2142]

Will this work on an 05 Electra glide?

[@bones661]

I believe it would.
