Or just order one from Samurider.
'14 Honda Luggage Rack does not fit the '14 Deluxe

Thread starter
In my case, 'swapping the rack from the '13 to the '14', was part of the trade-in deal with my dealer.
He is going a bit out of his way to pay 'extra' to get a new rack, since neither of us could have predicted that the rack would not just transfer from one bike to the other (boo.. Honda on this one !).
If I really need to haul some stuff, for now I'll just use my trusty CBR250R and the Givi case on it.

I have the same problem. If/when you get a part number on the retrofit kit for the rack, please post it so I can order it too... Thanks!!!!

Has anyone confirmed yet which rack fits the 2014 Canadian CB1100A?
The U.S. Honda site shows that the rack from '13 fits the '14 base model CB1100 (rack #: 08L70-MGC-A20)
The U.S. Honda site shows nothing available for the '14 DLX, but Samurider shows rack #: 08L70-MGC-N40
Givi shows their rack #: SR1118 as fitting both '13 & '14 models (maybe because it mounts differently, under the grab rail).
Comparing photos, it does appear that the grab rail on the '14s is mounted at a less extreme angle than the '13s. Therefore, a '13 rack might hit the tail light on a '14 and/or not align with the holes in the grab rail.
So, can anyone resolve the confusion?
Can any Canadian advise definitively which rack fits our '14 model?
Thanks in advance!

I'm very interested in this issue too.Gumby 1100_imp said:
I have a Ventura soft luggage system on my CB900F which has a luggage rack/grab bar as part of the system.
If push comes to shove I may go the Ventura route, but I would really like to one like what's being discussed here.

Samurider indicates a rack for the '13 and a separate one for the '14, no mention about Deluxe, think all 14's fit '14, whether canadian or not. The canadian model difference is fuel tank and exhaust, we have ABS as standard, only differences I see.

The Canadian model also has different seats and grab rails than the U.S. DLX which may further complicate matters.newhemi_imp said:
When I get home I will take some measurements from my Canadian '14:
1) Centre-to-Centre of Grab Rail Bolts
2) Angle of Grab rail from horizontal
3) Vertical height difference between front and back grab rail bolts
Hopefully then, someone with a U.S. DLX and the '14 Honda Rack can confirm if the measurements are the same or similar.

Folks - the 2013 and 2014 base model (black version) use the same luggage rack. The 2014 Deluxe uses a completely different rack, which I have bought from Samurider and installed. US Honda is clueless on this issue. I have in my hand the 2014 Japan accessories brochure, and it shows the Deluxe part number as 08L70-MGC-N40. I am attaching a photo of this rack installed on my 2014 Deluxe.
Ferret- there are no chrome instrument cups offered for the 2014 Deluxe, according to the Honda Japan brochure.

What we need then, is to confirm if the Canadian model is a "decontented" DLX or an "accessorised" Basic. Considering that Honda has three separate frame numbers for 2014, the Canadian model could be "none of the above".RetroSeattle_imp said:
RetroSeattle,
I'm hoping to count on your help once I have the relevant dimensions from my Canadian '14 (or, you could help by listing those three parameters from your DLX when you have time).
Thanks in advance!

Contacted the people at Samurider and they told me the '14 rack fits the '14 canadian model.

Let's hope so! But I would rather not have to ship a rack back to Japan if it doesn't fit the Canadian model.newhemi_imp said:
I just took the following measurements of the grab rail and mounting bolts, with the bike on the centre stand on a level surface.
1) Bolt Centre-to-Centre (Straight line between the bolt centres): 7-3/16" (182mm)
2) Angle of Grab Rail: approx. 15 Degree from horizontal
3) Vertical height difference between front and rear bolt: 1-7/8" (48mm)
Can anyone with the 2014 Rear Carrier confirm if these are the same dimensions?
Thanks in advance!

Ferret, NO CHROME COVERS! Guess you will just have to sell it to me at a loss. The shame of it.

Don't forget the '13 model has actually been around since 2010. It may just be a while before they get ramped up to make the covers for a '14.
On the UK board I followed Pyramid's path to getting a Fenda Extenda for our bikes to market and it took a lot longer than I thought it would for a piece of plastic.
I'd advise that you just be patient

Has anyone tried the 2014 rack yet on the 14 models, has been no follow up on this.

So far I only know of RetroSeattle who has installed the '14 rack but it is on a '14 U.S. Deluxe which may differ from the '14 Canadian model.newhemi_imp said:
He is out of town currently, but he will check the critical dimensions upon his return. That may be enough to let us know if it will fit the Canadian model...

I'd bet money that it's not going to clear the taillight on the 2014 Deluxe. Feel free to buy it and let us know, but it looks like it sits just above the taillight on the 2013, and with the different grab bar angle on the 2014 deluxe, I bet the tail light is in the way, and even if you removed the taillight, the rack would slope down and aft rather than being level.berck_imp said:
Personally, I'm not buying another rack for the 2014 Deluxe unless it's (a) clearly different than the 2013-2014 standard, or (b) you guys say it fits!
Oh, and not to mention that the grab bar width seems different. That is, if you use the spacers that stand the grab bar out from the mounting holes like they currently are, you cannot fit the rack around them. If you remove those spacers, you can, but then the grab bar will be tucked in much more...
To confirm - the Givi SR118 does not fit the 14 DLX.
