SW Motech evo racks question
#1

Is there anyone else currently running the (now discontinued) SW-motech evo luggage rack system? I just replaced my rear fender with one that isn't bobbed, and I'm trying to figure out if I'm missing a part or need to modify what I have. Specifically, I'm looking for a couple photos of the rear cross bar & how it's mounted to the license plate bracket. I tried contacting their North American distributor for a parts list or instructions, but the CB is no longer listed in their system.

Thanks

Good post, [url=http://cb1100forum.com/forum/member.php?action=profile&uid=3454]PB.

SW Motech EVO (deprecated) and PRO are excellent products.

And that's why I love this forum. Thanks, peterbaron. The plate bracket that I have has tabs on either end for reflectors, and it won't allow #18 to be installed that way without some modification. I just didn't want to start hacking things apart until I knew if I had the right parts. Much appreciated.

Thanks, Peking. I had read over that, and any other mentions of the system that I could find, but none had the exact info I was looking for.

As for the rear brackets, I don't use the original license plate bracket with reflectors at all.
My license plate is bolted directly to the #18 SW Motech bracket and my rear turn signals are bolted directly to the #1 bracket.
