somewhere on here are the old orig sales brochures that gave pix

I've also seen some that look like the old 110 racks that have braces down to the trailer hitch area

are those HOLES i see in your fender seat area? like for the racks?

I also can make them from 3/4" thick tubular steel. I have an 87 250SX to test if it on.

I designed mine to bolt to the the rear grab bar so no holes get drilled into the fenders.

Any size/width can be made. It can be made in a 1 piece unit or so that it bolts together to the grab bar and sides of the machine. I set mine up to run a PRM grab bar but anything can be configured.... Mount it to anything you wish!

I'll try to dig up a pic of my rack, but right after I built the motor with 700$ worth of performance products, I put it away. Sure it gets to 50MPH faster but then top speed is ALWAYS limited to about 50MPH. They are a very fun trike and next on my list was a modded manual clutch.

EDIT - It is/was never my intention of "stealing" work from someone else, I had not read the whole post.... I merely prefer tubular DOM tubing over flat stock and angle iron. Then you have to paint it all up and I recommend Rustoleum right from the can and applied with a brush. It lasts YEARS!! and the rack won't fit within my PC oven... :D

Sorry SILVERADO!!

Good luck!!
