INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

FBI FIXED TRUNK MOUNT

for ’96-’08 H-D® KING Tour-Pak™

NOTES:

NOTE: This mounting unit has no allowance for mounting of license plate frame, remote mount amplifier or other items

mounted on underside of OE mount. Customer is responsible for relocation of such items on bike.

Installation process is generally the same for installation on a bike with a stock fender or an FBI

fender—hardware components vary slightly.

This kit has been set up with the assumption that your bike already has H-D mounting hardware for

a backrest. If it does not, you will need to get the HD backrest rear mounting kit #53803-06. Call
FBI to purchase or for more information.

See images at the end of these instructions for general reference photos to help in the installation

process.

REMOVING THE ORIGINAL TOUR-PAK FROM YOUR BIKE:

1. Begin by removing your complete Tour Pak and its mounting assembly from your motorcycle. This process

will vary depending on if you have the bolted mount or the H-D removable mount assembly or other
aftermarket units. Once removed, lay it on its top on a padded bench and remove the bolts which attach the
Tour Pak itself to the mounting apparatus. If you initially just removed the Tour Pak from the mounting
apparatus, then now remove the apparatus as well.

2. Now if your bike has them (typically on Ultras), remove the H-D 4-Point Mounting hardware and “chrome

hoops” from your bike as well. This will not be reused. If your bike already has the H-D backrest docking
hardware, remove the front mounting spools and remove the rear mounting posts but leave the black
bracket that they are attached to.

3. We will first install the new FBI mount on your bike, and then mount the Tour Pak on top of it later.

INSTALLING THE NEW TRUNK MOUNT ON YOUR BIKE:
4.

HARDWARE: note that the hardware kit includes (4) stepped spacers with bolts and flat washers (two sets
each of two different length stepped spacers), and (2) round spacers with a round notch out of them. The top
mounting point of the shock has to be spaced out so the mounting unit clears the shock. The (2) round
spacers have a round notch out of them for the stepped spacer that mounts right next to it to mate to. See
expanded instructions below. SEE IMAGE #1

5. INSTALLATION OVERVIEW: Installation is very tricky for one person—an extra set of hands is very helpful.

You will temporarily install the chrome (or black) mount onto the bike, position your Tour Pak to mark
mounting holes to be drilled, take the mount off, drill the holes, bolt the Tour Pak on then re-mount the entire
assembly onto your bike. Continue for expanded instructions.

6. Remove top shock bolt on one side and pull bolt out to allow you to insert a round spacer with notch onto the

bolt between the shock and the frame. Turn the spacer to point the round notch toward the rear of your bike.
Wait to tighten shock bolt back down. Repeat for other side.

7. HINT: This step is lots easier with an extra set of hands handy! Of the (4) stepped spacers in the kit, install

the (2) short stepped spacers (with long step end toward the frame) in the front holes of the FBI mount from
the inside out. Install the long stepped spacers in the rear holes of the mount (again, with long step end
toward the frame).
