Luggage Rack Options
#1

I'm looking for a metal rack that fits over the existing brake light assembly for my 2014 Standard.

The most active luggage thread here seem to be more about saddle bags, panniers, and top boxes, but I'm just looking for a simple metal rack.

Pics and/or part numbers would be greatly appreciated!

I have a Fehling rack, it is small but good value and well made. https://www.fehling.de/

Yata-Garasu, as well as the Fehling, there is (or was) a larger Honda OEM one, one made by Givi, one by Kijima, and a couple of others. https://www.samurider.com/?s=rear+rack+cb1100

Honda OEM design. You can get them for like 100$ from ebay. Its lasted years and lots of trips with lots of weight.

Correction I just searched to find you a link. They've gone up about 60$, I suppose because of the increased material costs worldwide.

I got mine for 95$ 3 years ago. In black but they have thr chrome options too. You just have to grab longer bolts from hardware store. I can send you the lengths I have.

There are many copies of original Honda racks made in China. Beware that there are low-profile and tall-profile ones. I know of some low-profile racks that actually contact the taillight even before there is a load on it. I would recommend avoiding them as returns can be painful. Honda changed to the tall racks for 2014, and 2017 racks are different from earlier ones.

The tall-profile racks are roughly in line with the seat top. Hepco-Hecker and Givi are tall profile, and first-rate quality, as are the original Honda.

I have the Fehling and it is indeed a tiny rack. Suitable for a rolled up rain suit, or jacket and not much else, but that was the size of rack I wanted. Didn't want to take away from the look of the bike.

I have one of the Endurance racks, and I think it's one of the biggest ones available. The black color helps keep it stealthy, and it flows very well with the lines of the bike, and is flush with the stock seat, and the built in grab rails would help support a rather large load compared to other racks.

That's great information, thank you.

I would prefer an OEM Honda rack, but those are out of stock nearly everywhere and $300 bucks when I have seen them. That's about twice what I think it should cost!

Thanks for the guidance!

Thanks for the guidance! I have the low profile one thats a knockoff of the Honda one (didnt know they made 2 profiles) and it doesn't touch the housing. Its close but the load compresses the rear suspension not the rack because its mounted to the frame. The rack doesn't budge a mm. I was worried about that at first myself. (At least my rack) maybe I got lucky but it is the design you want and the price you think the OEM should have been in the first place Smile

That's good that it didn't touch. The problem I've seen is on 2014 models - there may be a slight difference in the frame mount point between 2013/2014, or just poor quality control of the manufacturer. Honda never made black racks, just chrome ones.
