I got this sissy bar/luggage rack for a Honda shadow and made it work for $60. I'm happy with how it turned out. Surprised how hefty the bar/rack was.

It was a close match. 4 longer bolts, 2 new holes, and 3 extra washers on each bolt to space it.

Thanks engelhardt... I might have to go that route. The ones for the GZ250 start out at the low $120.00 range. They don't look any better; they just cost more. I am not afraid of a little adaptation.

Try lifting the back end up, with stands or something. That'll let the wheel drop to give you more room to work.

There wasn't much room for my hands but I was able to do it without removing the rear.

When I was putting bag supports on Lynda's GZ I had problems with tight quarters under the rear fender. Then discovered an easy method. When working on the right side bolts I just slide my left hand over top of the tire from the left side to reach the hardware on the right side. There is actually a lot of usable work space up there once you get to it.

Yes, please. I've been looking around and just getting disappointed repeatedly with how many bars/racks there are out there for an affordable price, and the gz ones are like $200 bucks or more.
