Today a box with goodies came from Samurider ,it only took 6 days to get here from Japan!It include a chrome chainguard ,very nice.
Over st. st. crash bars ,again very nice and easy to put on.I put some Gorilla tape on the frame rails and replaced the plastic hose with a black fuel line on the u bolt,looks better and stronger.I also had ordered the Kijima rack and put that on the bike as well.It looks ok but nothing special ,my wife said it looked a bit feeble compared with the OEM Honda rack.It was easy enough to put on but not that easy that you take it off too often and put back on again.It would be easier if the rear nuts of the bungee bolts were welded on the frame.I have a Honda rack and I will put this on instead.I do not know if that is as easy as the Kijima one to put on but I will leave the Honda one on the bike anyway.The Kijima rack is black compared with the chrome Honda one.The Honda one is more substantial. We will TRY to post some pictures today if it stops raining and I can take the bike outside for the photo,s

I like the looks of racks that are a little shorter then the Honda ones.
Takashi has to love us.....I'm putting at least 1 kid thru college.

I just checked the box and it was send on Friday the 3 th and I received it today on the 7 th.
Samurider gives us excellent service and responds very well to our questions.

Cool, can't wait to see the pics. I really appreciate everyone putting different stuff on their bikes, and then posting pics for us to ogle. Thanks everyone.

The Honda rack is super strong, but not so fun to put on...

This helped me a little

Houtman -

Nice going! Can't wait to see the entire left side of the bike with the silver sprocket/crankcase cover, the chrome chain guard and the crash bars. Those should certainly add some sparkle to that side. Dang rain.

Ack-CB11,

Takashi has got to be smiling, and deservedly so. Honda introduces a beautiful bike in the US but offer a paltry few accessories. Samurider and Webike are picking up the slack.

This is the rack I am using. It is very substantial and it provides a nice little sissy bar to help keep the passenger in place.

How was the installation on that rack?

meowguy - nice find. Thanks for sharing. A small sissy bar backrest pad could be easily added and would look good. I may have to get one.
