Premeux Tour Pack

usranger74 · 03-16-2011, 09:20 PM

Installed my Premeux Tour Pack today. With the exception of dealing (thank you Scott and Jim) with frozen Allen crews, it was very easy.

One thing I don't like, it covered up by rear reflectors. I had to take the side reflectors off to fit the rack on and the Tour Pack covers up the reflector facing to the rear.

I am going to a bicycle shop in the AM and buy six small reflectors that I will fit on the luggage rack tubing on top of the Tour Park

But, also looking for suggestions.

getting ready to install electrical connections turn signal coversation on my bike it turns the turn signals into running and brake lights along with turnsignals thinking about a flashing brake light where the top reflector is mounted on top of license plate led type

WalMart has a selection of reflectors as well that you may be able to use as well.

Is your license plate not reflective?

It does, but I would like more at least from the side.

That is one tiny drawback with putting on a tour pack, but an easily remedied one. You will really love the Premeux trunk and all its benefits.

Bill,
If you look in both my left and right sig pics you will see where I got a couple peel and stick reflectors and put them right on the tour pack itself....one on either side. Any auto parts store will have a selection. Easily remedied...

You know that if you don't have a picture of your bike with the tour pack installed, then the falling tree made no noise. Or something like that. :-)

I don't like reflectors, personally. How about some red LEDs as side markers on the rear and amber up front? I replaced my side reflectors with little led lights I picked up at O'Reilly's.
