 Greetings, I've been looking for a Solo Seat gurard / rail and have had no luck.  Undecided I thought I found one in CA about a month ago but too late so I thought I'd put it out there. Any ideas or direction to acquire one or 2 would be most helpful. Thx  coolsmiley

I think most got them from Big Bike Things: (I always heard it called a seat basket)

https://www.bigbikethings.com/Seat_Rail/p4325477_16647554.aspx

Says sold out.  I remember some (somewhat recent) discussion about difficulty dealing with this outfit/guy, but can remember no details. (not trouble, just slow)



The one that came on my bike is a bit skinnier stock, but no idea where it came from.  Don't forget that it makes removing the shocks for rear tire and rear end service more work.  The thing does not bend or flex at all.

Thanks Jess, I did look them up after Jeff, Chrisj called to tell me about BBT Co. I also saw they were Sold Out so sent Barry a message. I appreciate your help. They sure look nice on the bike!  coolsmiley

You may or may not get a response, but just be patient. Check back every now & then for 1 in stock. Yes, quality is tops. Make sure you order the one that fits with your seat.
Note: On Tourer models, the saddlebags will rub the seat rail when fully open, but not too bad.

That's funny, I used to live off Five Forks as well, near Rock ridge Rd. Still a nice, pretty well kept area.
Yeah, just keep checking his website every week or so, plus let him know you are waiting for one that will fit with your particular seat.
