bought it for my 2015 Black and Red anniversary addition. The wife and I eye balled it. Then put green painter's tape on the trunk. Placed the rack on then traced the legs. I was going to measure and be very precise but my wife urged me to eyeball the centers. I did. Halfway through drilling the wholes she said. What if they don't all match up? No kidding. I had to elongate one hole about 1/16" and everything went together well. I bought the black star washers because the foot bases they provide are chromed and not black and to help spread the weight. I put a fender washer underneath to help spread the weight and might put a thin but stiff piece of nameplate brass or aluminum underneath the lid. This worked well on my 91 SE. Black coating looks good used it once on my trip so far. Looks good. Stands tall enough to be able to clean under it too. Gave it 4 stars because the feet were chromed and not black. |

I installed mine yesterday. The directions state to center the rack and drill four holes for the feet. No template. Measured what I could, mostly "eye balled" the placement. They seem will made and look good on my 2016 black Gold Wing GL. I also bought the 1.25 inch washers with rubber backing to place under the lid to hopefully stop cracking. I like it. |
