Can you believe anyone would pay $200 plus shipping for this????




Just had a flash of real cheapness. May not be pretty but it would work. A sheet of 1/8 metal with 2 bends in it. Drill 4 holes and install over the pillion seat and fender. You get more rack for less $. Just do not cut along dotted line.
