Looking for a rear rack to mount my tailbag. There seems to be several offered for the'13, any favorites?

I'd have bought the OEM rack to mount the plate for my Givi Top box, but it was ridiculously expensive. About AU$450 as I recall. I couldn't get anyone to import the Givi rack so went with a Daytona rack designed specifically to mount top boxes on.

I much prefer the look of the Kijima rack over the Honda rack. I'm just not a fan of the thicker bars on the Honda rack.

Black

Think there is silver as well, not sure if it fits 2013's.

Couple other options I found, but they're more than twice what I paid.

I prefer the stock luggage rack accessory from Honda. Nothing fits and looks better in my opinion. I mounted a Givi plate to accommodate a Givi carrier which I use interchangably with my SH150i.

The price from Samurider was something like $196 US plus shipping. So yes it is a bit more expensive than other options but it's a pretty good rack. Still only rated to hold 8kg though which is about 20 pounds.

Hey Andy,

I took that little sticker off my rack and now it holds more...

That rack is built like a tank. I wonder if they are more worried about the leverage on the bolts being the limit, but I'm not a mechanical engineer so I don't know.

I figured its that or the lawyers.

I'm thinking that the weight limitations is because of where it is in relationship to the axle. Excessive weight + goosing the throttle = wheely time

$220 was the price they gave me shipped. Having a hard time with that since I went overboard on a new helmet. If I can't find something that is quite a bit less it's going to be a while. I'll just continue to tie the bag on the rear of the seat until then.

I went with the Hepco and Becker Alurack. Primarily for the raised grab bar, which I hope to get backrest pad fabricated.

Samurider contacted me and says the black Kimija fits the '13 model, $150 shipped.
If I carried a passenger I'd go with that H&B rack, a pad slipped over that back would be an easy mod by any upholstery shop for a padded backrest.

Son gave me the money to buy the kimija black rack for my Christmas gift. Hohoho. We'll see just easy it is to mount
