I read that the MP3 rack is no longer and don't care for the Show Chrome. Anybody know of anything else? I like the look of the MP3.

Thanks Steve, but thats the Show Chrome which I didn't care for. Looking for something else or an MP3 for sale would work.

@Broncsrule...is that just a copy of the stock Honda one or is it inherently different?

It says "aftermarket" in the ad. If the pictures are accurate, it looks identical. A great price!

Two weeks ago, I put one of Dale's luggage racks on my F6b. I then mounted a Pelican 1500 case to the rack. I was very pleased with the rack and with Dale's service.

I have an MP3 rack and the finish is shit, plastic caps didn't fit, not worth the $ I paid. I took it off, flatten it out in my shop and use it as a mount for my trunk bag. Now the crappy finish is under the razor trunk bag and I don't have to look at it. Repainting a rear rack every year is stupid.

Thanks guys...Dales could be an option...looks sturdy as hell! @Brewdog...just out of curiosity when the MP3 was available what did it sell for?

They were $189.99.
Yes the caps did not fit, got 25 for $2 on Ebay. Took 2 months to arrive but they were perfect.

Yeah, I experienced the same, had it sand blasted then powder coated gloss black.
The plastic caps I got also didn't fit.

I ended up doing the fab work for my own rack. Built to accept Harley tour pack mounts. We even went so far as to cad design our own tour pack mount to sit lower to the f6b body work. Almost done. Trick will be to see if it is at all profitable to make a few and sell them on here...257092570825707

WTF is with the pictures on this website? If its a cost issue, I'll be happy to donate some $ as I'm sure others would be willing to do as well.

Too bad pics don't work. I would love to see this.
