For those interested, here are a couple more pics of the rack (sorry, taken on a rainy day in the garage) along with the e250 mounted and in addition the Givi top box - v47.

I was searching for a Honda OEM Rear Carrier today. I could have sworn I saw one for $220 a few weeks ago but can't find the link. But during my search I came accross this.

Price: $135.00
Code: GVSR1118

2 Questions:
1) Has Anyone seen or tired the Givi Rear Rack?
2) What is the best price you've seen on the Honda OEM rear carrier? Please post a link if you have it.

Thanks

How is it that the price for this item has gone up over $100????

Yep I had the Givi rack, it was about half the price of the Honda, its a good chrome rack.

Couldn't get the Givi rack in Australia and Honda wanted better than AUD$400 for the OEM unit.

Now I am embarrassed, not only did I buy a machine 2 years older than I thought but I paid NZ$659 less 10% for an OEM rack here in NZ. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.
