    Man that fits like OEM. I'm envious. I'm thinking of putting the smaller Viking trunk on my 2018 HD Heritage. The Factory one (with the goofy studs) is so dang expensive $700+. May I ask if that's the larger or smaller Viking trunk that you're showing on the video? Trying to get a size comparison. Thank you.

      I don't have the scoot anymore and at the time they only had one to choose from. I just went on the site and I can tell you I had the extra large one for sure! Hope it all works out for you! Be Blessed!

    That looks great! Big enough to fit 2 half helmets but not 2 full face ones. I was looking at getting a chieftain dark horse and going this route but I got a sweet deal on a road master instead. Change the back pad and add the arm rest for your wife and she will enjoy being on the bike a whole lot more.

    Dude! now your scaring me I have Viking bags on the Valkyrie. Rhonda lock the doors and let the Maltese off the leash I think we have a stalker !

      I'm watching you Ken!! ...LOL My brother put Viking bags on his Vstar 950t I gave him. He had nothing but good to say about then. I was not willing to pay $1800 for just the trunk from Indian and over $3200 for everything to make a complete tour pack. As I searched the internet I saw these and said ..."self I think this will work"! So here we are.
      So when are we getting together...What are you all doing this Monday or Tuesday?
      P.S. Keep the doors locked....I'm watching!! LOL

    That looks really great on your bike. I have the same trunk on my Vulcan, very good trunk for the price. :)

    Awesome add on! I think I will add this later on. I need to find a wider seat option for my wife.(she has a JLo butt) I find the stock Chieftain seat fits me well so am unsure of what to do next.

    how is the trunk holding up through the years?
    im considering one but im iffy on the fact that its leather wrapped

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  Рік тому +1

      Works well for over two years. But I have sold it since.

    Hello, I have a Viking truck and planning to do the same with my Chieftain. What were the bolts sizes for the install if you remember. Thanks

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  4 роки тому

      Oh man, I don't remember. I have traded that scoot in too so I cant check either. Sorry. Thanks for watching and God Bless and be safe out there.

    hello, i was considering buying a Roadmaster for the rear tour pak, now seeing you adding on a Viking trunk, im thinking of buying a Limited model. yeah it is a big savings! have you thought about adding a luggage rack on it as well?

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  5 років тому +1

      No longer have this scoot! But a luggage rack would be great on this trunk! Enjoy your scoot no matter what you choose!

    • @terryloewen7291
      @terryloewen7291 5 років тому +1

      may i ask what your new ride is?

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  5 років тому

      You may, I have rods in my lower back and I could not get comfortable on the Indian. It is because of the angle of the set and the frame. No matter what I did I come not ride more them 45 mins until I had to rest. I went back to HD A 2017 Road Glide Ultra. Believe me I wish I could have just kept the Indian. Much better bike but the HD fits me! I can ride for hours now...(If it stays running that long) LOL

    Great video ... I have exactly the same motorcycle in Israel even the same color. I want to do the same but shipping prices to Israel are so expensive that I am looking for a solution .. Thank you.

  • @DWDinAtlanta

    I like it, it looks great and I think a must have if you are shopping around and don't want to haul around the helmet & then have a place to transport things back home. The seat looks comfy too. Are you getting used to it by now?

    • @LaVieFlottante
      @LaVieFlottante 7 років тому

      Yes... I thought you were not convinced that your butt fit the seat or vice versus. :) Now you are missing an Indian logo off of it and its worthless! All kidding aside that is a nice looking trunk. I agree that the Indian trunk is too expensive. I was going to add accessories to my Chieftain to match a Roadmaster until I calculated the price!

    Very nice. May need to do that myself I think seeing that Indian refuses to release theirs in Black yet for some odd reason.

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  7 років тому

      Glad you like it. Just so you know I'm selling mine now because we are selling the bike. I have a little over $800 in it and will sell it for $650 plus shipping. Not sure on shipping but I will only charge what is charged at the point of shipping. Just let me know or anyone here that my like this.

    • @IndianSpringfield17
      @IndianSpringfield17 7 років тому +1

      RN - RV Chronicles I would but I already have the original bracket. I might be interested in just the trunk but technically that is all I need. How much for just the trunk if ya wanna do that?

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  7 років тому +1

      Kelly Frankenbery 250 plus shipping. So about 275. Give or take. I will only charge what ever shipping is. Also I will send the bolts and washers with it. I had to put that Viking embelem back on. Llp.. I paid 329 plus shipping from their site. Just let me know if u want it and we can work out the details.

    • @IndianSpringfield17
      @IndianSpringfield17 7 років тому +1

      RN - RV Chronicles sounds like a deal. Let's do this. I do have a PayPal account if you want to just do payment that way. Invoice for payment can be sent to kels70charger@yahoo.com. Just let me know and let's do this. Great deal thanks

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  7 років тому

      Kelly Frankenbery okay I will get it boxed up tomorrow or Thursday and find out how much it cost for shipping and send you a invoice through PayPal. Thanks man that really helps out.

    How much was the quick disconnect base from Indian?

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  7 років тому +1

      I have a link in the description above to Indian web site for the base. I did order mine from a local dealer and they gave me 15% off of the price. So check out your local dealers as well. $499 for base less 17% or $74.99.

    Did you mannage to add speakers or arm rest on it?

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  7 років тому

      No I did not! I traded it in on something else. I just could not get comfortable on the scoot. I do miss it though! I wish I would have fitted on the bike better.....legs are just to long..34 inseam. I will be putting up a video about that soon.

      RN - RV Chronicles what bike do you have now?

  • @jasonhobson3597
    @jasonhobson3597 7 років тому +1

    I saw in one of the comments that you are selling the bike. Would you sell that ultimate seat?

    • @jasonhobson3597
      @jasonhobson3597 7 років тому

      RN - RV Chronicles how many miles do you have on the seat?

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  7 років тому

      @ 300 miles. I cant ride that much because of my back.

    • @rn-rvchronicles
      @rn-rvchronicles  7 років тому

      I paid $885.... So I will be asking 785...Free shipping. Thats is $100 less then new and I only had it about a month with @ 300 miles on it if even that much. Just let me know if you want it ASAP I will be listing it on Ebay tomorrow sometime.
      Thanks!
      Dave & Katie!

    • @jasonhobson3597
      @jasonhobson3597 7 років тому

      RN - RV Chronicles ok. I can't go that high. Thanks for your time. I was hoping 500-600.

    Their pricing is GOUGING at its best! Trunk looks like crap being black. Paint it and you have a winner. What about the new seat you said you were going to give an update after trying it out. Where is that?
