Honda Luggage Rack

[ChipBeck_imp]

Good question and no offense taken. I just installed mine this past week. My wife walked out to the garage as I was installing the rack and her comment was: "It really doesn't look as cool with that piece installed, does it?" She's right, it is a luggage rack after all. It took a bit of time and patience to put the thing on so I've left it on for the time being. But I'll probably be taking mine off soon and setting it aside for the time being. When I think I'll be in need of it, I'll put it back on and I doubt it will take quite as long the second time around. The rack is nice, of good quality and it doesn't look bad on the bike. But the bike definitely looks better without the rack in my opinion.

Gentlemen,

I agree with Guth on this one. I have this chrome Honda rack. It's extreemly well made and hell for stout. The quality of the chrome is great. My only complaint is that it's heavy. I wish they had made it out of aluminum instead of steel. But it certainly detracts from the look of the bike so I took mine off too. Beauty trumps utility for me here. If I ever take my CB on a road trip I'll put it back on after I powdercoat it semi-gloss black.
