    Marty,
    Do you still have the luggage rack from the 80G. Now that I've got the 99 RSV I'm thinking about remover the trunk and Bags or just the trunk from my 80G. I have a king and queen seat so I'm not sure if the factory grab bar will fit unless I get another seat. I have seen some pics of bikes with the bags and just a rack that look pretty good. So I may be interest in the rack if you wanna get rid of it.

      Here is a picture showing the SF (back ground) and SG seats. Notice the tail light and grab bar. The side covers are different as well.

          I can clearly see the differences between those models, but it seems to me that the 80g panels are just about the exact same as those on your sf in the background. ??

            Russ,

            I bought the luggage rack on eBay. It didn't fit, so I simply resold it on eBay. As luck would have it, I made money.

            Ben,

            If you had those sidecovers in your hands, it would be very clear to you that they are not the same.

              The "SG" side covers tapers down to the rear more than the "SF". Notice the seat on the "SG" goes down to the middle of the shock mount, where the "SF" does not. This "SG" has round mounts, where the "SF" has slotted mounts.
