 3 days from Japan! now that's amazing
#1

Got a surprise today from Samurider, the kijima rear rack I ordered on December 26! Today it was at my post office box at noon. Wow! After dinner I'll be out installing it on the CB, pictures will follow ( listen quietly and you may hear a few naughty words Smile installations usually seem to demand a few).

The website says it's for a '14 CB but I just installed it on a '13 with zero problems. $148 delivered. Now I just have to figure out how I am going to install my old tail bag, may have to do some modifications to the straps for a snug fit.

Installation was maybe 15 minutes, instructions provided were fairly useless especially since they were in Japanese but there was a couple of photos. A #6 T handle Allen wrench and some patience and it was on. No swear words so it was pretty straight forward!.

Yes I took a crappy cell phone pic but it still shows it. Smile

Good work, Gossman. Look forward to seeing the tail bag in place.

The mail service Takashi uses is fast. My record shipment received is 60 hours door to door: Japan to Maryland.

Enjoy the install instructions - written in Japanese Smile

I tossed the directions, pretty basic install. After all, I am a man! Smile
