| The chrome has some mile abrasions in it so we will see how it holds up. The installation was pretty easy. Put some tape on the trunk lid, lined it all up and marked the legs. I took my time and did one hole, checked, did another, check and so on. Total install time was about an hour. It looks good on my yellow 2010 even with the spoiler. |

| I've had my 2005 goldwing for seven years now and have always wanted THIS luggage rack! Installation was very simple but anytime I have to drill holes in the "Tupperware " I sweat bullets! Measure four times and drill once. I do recommend a helper when positioning to layout the position. |

| This luggage rack was half the price of other racks so I was unsure how well built it would be. I was very pleased with it. The installation was straightforward, no issues at all. There’s a lot of comments about chrome quality and rust on all the different racks. My opinion there is take better care of it! My bikes are garage kept and clean. Wax is your best friend. |

| Took about an hour-and-a-half to install. The directions that came wit the rack were pretty good. I followed them closely and had no problems. One change I would suggest, though, is...the directions say to keep the rack forward on the trunk as much as possible, but by doing so, it makes it very, very difficult to wash / wax underneath the rack under the section in the middle that raises up. If I could do it over again, I would keep it back a little further, giving me a little more clearance there. |

OK, will they rust? Yes if not properly taken care off. So when you wax your bike, wax the rack. I liked the design better than the Kuryakyn. It was simply a matter of choice. This was installed on my 2005 GL1800. My bike is metallic blue so it breaks up the color nicely. I guess I would say - it accents it. Formerly I owned a 1996 SE with this type of rack. The small rubbers and washers caused a hair line crack to emerge on the underneath side of the trunk. My son and I fiber glassed over it, then I bought the large flat chromed washers and placed them under the rack's legs. I did the same on my current 2005 when I installed the rack. The larger washers spreads the concentrated weight out over the trunk more. Less chance of a crack appearing. Just don't exceed the total weight if strapping stuff on. |

| I purchased this brand in 2010 from the shop I bought my Wing from. All is well with construction of Trunk Rack, However it has rusted badly, mostly at the welds. I am going to have it sand blasted and will paint and clear coat. |

| I bought this for my 2012 with the 3rd brake light spoiler. This rack fits perfectly without touching or rubbing the spoiler or the back of the back rest cushion. Take your time drilling the mounting holes. Having another pair of hands wouldn't hurt to hold the rack in place while you mark the mounting holes on the trunk. Make sure you have proper clearance on all sides. Use frog tape on your painted surface while fitting the rack to avoid scratches on your paint. I applied a good coat of wax on the rack BEFORE i mounted it taken care to get all of the hard to reach places coated well. I've put a couple of thousand miles with the rack with no signs of rust or pitting. For those of you complaining of rust on your chrome, I have a product for you; ACF-50. Look it up, order it and say goodbye to rust and corrosion. |

Have had this on less than a year on my 2015. Looking at it closer and rust all over. My bike stays in the garage at home and covered parking at work. The rust is worse on the rack surface facing the front where it would catch the wind. Very poor surface. Guess I will pull off and powdercoat it. Would not buy it again. Michael |

| I've had this rack for about 4 months, purchased just before going on a 6500 mile trip, and it is rusting at every weld joint, my advice, don't buy it. |
