I found a gorgeous one on ebay about 2 hours too late. Does anyone know if other Kawa luggage racks will fit? Ive seen some for 650 SR and 750. I want one!

The dimensions of the key mounting points are 12" between the upper shock hangers (mount width) and 9-1/4" center to center from the shock hangers to the grab rail bolt (mount length) There needs to be about a 6-1/2" rise from the grab rail bolt to clear the tail section plastic.

You can adapt just about any rack to fit as long as it is the same as or bigger than these dimensions. We fit a rack from a BMW on my buddies CB900F without too much bother.

I made a aluminum rack for my KZ650 as it was cheaper than a good vintage NOS version, stronger as well.

That looks really nice, where'd you end up finding one at? I'm looking to do the same thing. Thanks so much

Thanks. A random guy on ebay. I think he may have another. Should I reach out to him for you?
