#1 | Rear luggage rack removal datum

Sat Jun 23, 2018 10:36 pm

I just got rid of my Harley and bought a 2018 black R1200RS. I changed bikes partly for the handling but I just got to make some mods, can I get rid of the rear rack and is there a piece to fill the hole that would be left? Thanks for any help or suggestions.

Sorry. No suggestions as I can�t imagine living without my rack and top box.

It�s used every time I ride.

Carpe Diem!

There are pillion handles from BMW that bolt in. The cost of lt, from what I read on the old forum is over USD300. They look nice.

I would like to apologize to anyone I have NOT offended. Please be patient. I will get to you shortly.

Someone on the old forum, did a DIY rack removal, including the horns. Perhaps, someone recalls the name of the person that posted the info.

You might want to take a peek at the r1200R forum.
