    Do you still have this?

    Is this still for sale? How much? Will it fit a standard frame?

    Many Thanks,

                Amazing how many of these show up for the 79, and bow few for the 80-81 model.

                    79 specific?

                    Will it fit an 80? I thought if it fit a Special it would fit all Specials...

                    If it will fit an 80 I am interested. I have bought several of these but they only fit Standards.

                    I really dont want to try another that wont fit.

                      John,
                      No, the 79 Special rack uses different mounting points than the 80-81 Special, it has to do with the change in the seat grab rail and the rear tail light mounting.

                      On the 80-81 Special racks, the upper mounts bolt to where the rear tail light mounts to the grab bar. So where the back mounts are on this rack, it would be turned to line up with the light mounting spots.

                        Thanks!

                        Saved me another non-fitting rack - though someday I will prevail...

                            I forgot I had that one

                            I forgot there was even a rack under the tarp!

                            See Greg you are saving me money even across the country!



                            Shoot Richard and I found another 160 std speedo I forgot about (I had four) in my parts stash when we were looking for one with 18,000 miles like his current one (the one I had was at 18,110 or close)

                            I need to do an inventory.

                            I bet if I sold some I could afford to buy Gas for this summer's trip

                            I also need a vacation to get started on my touring project.

                              Standard Racks

                              John,

                              Do you still have any of these unloved Standard racks?

                              If so, how much $$$ to help you part with one of them?
