Good day all,
I am looking for a set of luggage racks to top my saddlebags with.
Seen several sets on Interstates that are 4-rail,
but only find places to buy 3-rail racks.

Can someone please lead me in the right direction to purchase the 4-rail racks.

Also, there are many saddlebag rail guards out there.  Being ignorant of which ones to buy,
any advise there would also be greatly appreciated.

Please respond to kid4evr@gmail.com.

Thanx................Larry

Based on the $450 Cobra ones over at valkyrieblingandmore.com, four rail ones are hard to come by...

I wonder about fitment from other bikes, I bet these are good, I also bet that if there were easily
interchangable ones out there, we'd already know about it...

If your other question was about the guard rails on the saddlebags, it might be that the only
really good ones are the OEM ones, they're hard to find too... There's a couple of current
threads about some knock-offs that are pretty easy to get, some people are happy with
them, some not...

Keep in mind you have to clean and polish, not only the racks, BUT UNDERNEATH THEM ON THE BAG TOPS. I wish I had never put 'em on mine. I'd take 'em off but that leaves holes that I don't know how to patch and paint.

Maybe you and kid4evr should get together.  I wonder what color are his bag lids?
