Just for reference, the one he posted pictures of is OEM and not M/C.
I'm having a senior moment here. What do you mean by M/C ??

The "MC Enterprises" after-market brand. They offer a Sissy Bar and Luggage Rack for the GZ250. The construction is different. They make the Sissy Bar and Luggage Rack as separate components:

http://www.xtremebargains.net/index.php ... s_id=14024

I haven't found anything that tells me the load limits between the two.. so have no idea as to which may be better.

Re: GZ250 Sissy bar

Those fender mounted rear racks usually have a recommended weight limit of 7 lbs.
The integrated one piece sissybar rack should be able to carry a bit more.

Re: GZ250 Sissy bar

mc = motor cycle. The one I bought was a genuine Suzuki. I'll do a search to see if I can find what I paid.

Re: GZ250 Sissy bar

Waya, if it was me I would go with the OEM rack/backrest combo rather than the 2 pieces from MC and save some bucks while getting a better load limit too. Oneida Suzuki, part # 99000-93031-100.

Re: GZ250 Sissy bar

Babitts listing with price: http://cart.babbittsonline.com/pages/ca ... -rack.aspx

Oneida listing with price: http://www.oneidasuzuki.com/store/parts ... gz250.html

Oneida will also charge a minimum $21.96 for shipping. Not sure about Babitts. I was figuring between $10 & $15 as a guess for shipping from me to you. Again that is a guess.


So . . . either way, the one I have for sale is still priced lower for the same exact item.

If you can find a better price for a brand new one (still in the plastic it came in as mine is) or a very good used one, then by all means buy it. :2tup:
