Luggage rack needed - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

Kingtut · 09-22-2005, 11:01 AM

I have a new (for me) 2001 Intruder VS800. Does anybody know where I can order a luggage rack that will fill on the back of the stock sissy bar/backrest? I've had trouble with other bikes . . . companies sending racks that didn't fit. I haven't found a pic on the www. of my bike with a rack on the back. I need one. Can anyone help? Thanks.

You can try Metric Thunder, Cruiser Customizing, or even go to the dealer and see what they have to offer. The dealer may be willing to cut you some slack if you just ask. That is what I did.

Metric Thunder. Sean now owns them.

Yea,, no sh*t huh? I ought to be getting kick backs from them. I just have had nothing but good service from Metric Thunder, Leatherneck Jims, Easy Brackets, Brakeaway Products, and Big City Thunder. I think any company that tries to help you out and stands behind what they sell ought to be recognized and supported. Where as any company that gives you, or should I say Tim, the polish sausage when you ordered Brauts should be chastised, banned, and put up against the wall to be stoned.
