Looks great, Ferret!

I bought the H&B rack mostly for the grab bar. I think Fehling definitely nailed the rack/grab bar combo. Yours looks a lot nicer than mine.

Ferret, can you look on your invoice and confirm the Fehling part number?
is yours :

6144 G HO CB 1100 EX

That rack looks good enough to leave it on all the time. Because the factory Honda and others are much larger, I'm sure there are others, like me, that only install them for road trips.

Looks fantastic and suits the CB perfectly, but the small rack makes that pesky oil cooler look even bigger... Wink

Ferret, Thanks for verifying the part number, and thanks also for showing that this rack fits your DLX. I too like how the grab bar is shaped and how nice it looks on your bike.

That was my original intention Ron, to use it just for trips, along with the shorty shield, otherwise run it naked, but you are right its not obtrusive, and it might just stay on all the time.

Would have been nice if Honda had welded the nuts on the back of the frame for those bungie hooks. If they had it, would really be easy to take it on and off, as is it's a bit of a juggling act with bolts, spacers and nuts at the rear. Not real difficult, just harder than it had to be.
