Title: Rear Luggage rack
Post by: RandyN on January 01, 2015, 03:26:41 PM

I have an HB rear luggage rack that came with my 86 R65, but no mounting brackets.
I cant find anything on the web, so am looking for some photos or assistance. I cn fab brackets if I need to, but I would like it to look correct.(http://)
Thanks
Randy

If the rear carrier fits I suspect it would be to the pannier mounting frames. I know there are carriers that fit the R45/65's but not sure about the LS.

Motobins have them which might give you some insight.

Thanks for the link. My pannier racks don't have the required mounting tabs, but I am comfortable now that I have a photograph as a guide, I can fab them up. The rack does seem to locate properly when compared to the photos.
Cheers
