The Ultra Brace™ for Harley
Tour-Paks provides a functional upgrade to your Electra Glide, Tour Glide, Road Glide or Road King. The brace replaces
the stock cable or accessory tether that goes between the Tour-Pak lid and body. It allows the lid to open fully
but not flop over. Once you've installed an Ultra Brace, you'll never want to go back to the cable or tether. The Tour-Pak
is that much easier to open and close. Lock into place or for quick entry, leave the Ultra
Brace in the unlocked position. Never again will the cable get caught outside the Tour-Pak. An open
Tour-Pak with an Ultra Brace has a narrower profile to allow easier parking in your garage.
The Ultra Brace™ is easy to install and includes all hardware and instructions.
After installation, the passenger backrest covers all exterior bracket back-plates. It fits all '79 to Current Tour-Paks,
including detachable and chopped Tour-Paks. It works especially well on Tour-Paks outfitted with a luggage rack
or with Harley's Tour-Pak Lid Organizer and fits Tour-Paks with the Harley-Davidson remote CD changer or automatic light accessory.
Operation: The
Ultra Brace™ allows the Tour-Pak to be opened/closed easily with one hand to an optimal position...right where you want
it. With the Tour-Pak open the Ultra Brace can then be left in the unlocked position for quick access to your
gear. If needed the Ultra Brace can also be put into a locked position for extra support of a full luggage rack
or lid organizer. Closing the Tour-Pak lid is also an easy one hand motion from either the locked or unlocked position.
Never again will the stock cable flop outside the tour-pak.
For '06 to current ABS plastic HD tour-paks, slightly longer screws are provided. Model
year '05 and earlier tour-paks were manufactured out of fiberglass and use slightly shorter screws. Manufactured in the U.S.A.
TB-3: Silver zinc plated to match the inside of the tour-pak. The new TB-3 improves the
bracket angle for optimal installation ease and tour-pak lid open/close operation.
Testimonials:
"Hey guys, a truly great addition to my Anniversary Ultra Classic
Electra Glide. Thanks eGlideGoodies for such a great idea. Our next long distance tour will be teather free without
any fear of the lid falling over due to a broken cable. Your website made it easy for us up here in the great white
north of eastern Ontario to order on-line without a problem. Thanks again." Gary C., June '09
"eGlideGoodies, A while back I had ordered the TB-2 Ultra Brace for my 2001 Classic’s
King Tour Pack. I just wanted to drop you a line to say “Thanks for the great service and a truly awesome product”.
The brace made a world of difference in the functionality of the tour pack lid. No more “flop over” or “slamming”
when it is opened and closed, and can be done easily with one hand. As the saying goes “This is the best thing since
sliced bread”. The brace was very easily installed... All-in-all I would still give this product “2 thumbs
up”. Greg W. August '09
