The one I would like is available from Honda oem or from Samurider but apparently only for the DLX/EX model. Samurider offers a sanctioned from Honda aftermarket product. Can I get a oem rear rack for my CB1100 or will I have to resort to the sanctioned one offered by Samurider?? Any advice would be a big help. Thanks.
It is confusing at first blush. With the STD bike, like yours and mine, you have the choice of two different OEM Honda racks. They are built differently in how the two cross member slats are flat on one and round on the other; The mounting is the same for either rack with the STD bikes like yours and mine. However, one has extra mounting parts needed for the DLX. I suppose that makes the DLX even heavier than it already is. What a pig! *grin*.
Again, there is one Honda OEM rack that fits the STD only, the black one for example, like yours and mine. The other rack fits either. There is no Honda OEM rack that fits only the DLX.
I have the Honda OEM rack that fits both STD and DLX on my black CB1100A (STD). I ordered mine through my dealer. I told him what I would pay, $200, and he accepted it. There was no shipping cost. I did pay local sales tax. I did not have to move any turn signals. The OEM rack fits perfectly.
I like the rack for the STD and DLX better than the other. It is slightly higher in advertised cost. I think it is worth it but that might just be me.
