Kuryakyn GL1800 Gold Wing Luggage Rack

Only having a G.Wing for less than a couple of weeks, we had little very little time to buy what we felt was the right to outfit the bike, have the new tires and accessories installed by the dealer, and get it on the road ASAP.

This rack was my first choice which I did order, but I had second opinions after seeing the warning sticker not to exceed the 5lb limit rating.

The owner of our local dealership uses the same rack on his bike.

We spent 8 hours at a much larger dealership yesterday that had a pin strip artist with people coming from some distances to have their bikes done, and just about every Wing that came in had this rack on it, plus so many other accessories I had no idea even existed.

I am extremely pleased and more so that I ordered it with the risers.

This works perfectly with the $35 luggage bag shown on the first page of GL1800 accessories. Took a bit to figure how to fasten it, but I can assure you it is not coming off. If you did not have the risers, it would be quite some challenge putting the bag on the rack.

The rack looks great and should last the life of the bike.

If you order the riser kit too,you can remove the inner trunk liner and mount all four holes inside (all within the outer shell).

That's what I did. But only two bolts will work from each kit, the other two are too long (made for going through the inner liner).

Get a helper; set up the whole thing with risers on top of masking tape. Trace the big risers, "x" a center whole, then drill through that. You may want to get a rat tail file in advance to trim the holes, and I also used silicone goo, but you can make a mess with that real quick. It cleans up easy though.

installed mine last week with the extenders, went on very well by doing one hole at a time lined up through the riser holes, used larger rubber and fender washer on the inside, pretty much matches the size of the risers. Chrome could be better but it sure looks good and will work to keep things handy on the way to Fairbanks.

bought mine on e-bay before I found Wingstuff. won't do that again. But this is a very nice rack

Great Rack! I had the dealer install this as I did not want to mess it up. I had it installed with the star washers which helps spread the load, not to mention they really look great too. Very sturdy construction and the rubber insert really helps to keep the load from shifting around. I've had lots of compliments on this, very happy with it. This was one of my few good decisions!!
