It is for show only......really.........I've put a small sack with a qrt of oil or something like that...........but I wouldn't trust it for heavier camping type gear. I read his post there too.........but............like Troll said..........? I'm going to try a 1967 FLH luggage rack. Found one on Ebay for 50.00 Looks like it might work. Apex Sports has a rack with a Kawasaki Number that matches the factory for a 1500, but it's $173.00.

- March 20, 2014, 21:01:15 PMI think that's a Ted's Design rack,isn't it? I've got one I bought used last year,and have never mounted it - future 800 project. I would think the fender-mount would support 10 lb easily wouldn't it? That's not very much, really, only 2 sacks of sugar. I definitely wouldn't put a lot on there though. The temptation would be there, though, to strap a 40# bag on there, though, so keep that in mind.
I think there are several of them around mounted on Drifters, though - maybe some of their owners will chime in....
