Re: Luggage Racks
We have a couple of Ventura side rails for £65 which is cost . They need the brackets welding in place but are cut and shaped. Then painting coating, we did this so we could get them alterered for the 250/400 nad 650/550.
I will struggle to get them done for easter. If you can get them done I'll get a set off to you and sort out dosh at rally.
You will need a rack/ grab rail , from Ventura/Motohaus in Odijham (importers ) or through local bike shop , but they are stock items. As there is only 3 sizes of racks for all bikes , it is just the width that varies.

Re: Luggage Racks
Blix mate sent up the rails on Saturday morning along with mine so you can get the welder just to copy it.
Just bring'em down to Mold

Re: Luggage Racks
The set is complete and original as from Bold engineering in NewZealand, who make Ventura .
Yes they mount at the shock mount and the bolt that holds the indicator bracket on.
just bring it to mold as no rush.Unless it is better for you tp post.

Re: Luggage Racks
I know its not a lot of use to you Mick.......but I made 5 limited edition Bobster racks last year for the Eurokat 4 rally.
I made them out of 3/4" and 1/2" steel tubing. The rear section is removable so it can be used as a Grabrail when the rack is not required.

Shame I wont be making anymore !
And they were only £65 all in !
I think I diddled myself!

think yourself lucky you didn't get one,
they have a tendancy to cause a bike to fall over when least expected,
least one of the 5 did

Re: Luggage Racks
