Still playing around with my Homed Brewed Luggage Rack. Spent a hour at a friends shop and used his engine lathe to turn the support spools for the rack. Had a piece to 7/8" aluminum round stock which I drilled and parted to size. The offset in height between the front and rear backrest mounting holes is 5/8". Made two spools 1 1/8" long for the front and two 1 3/4" long for the rear. Those lengths put the rack on a even plane. Im going to paint the spools satin black which will closely match the backrest bracket.

A few pics
