Didge have you ever thought of doing the centre rack in tube steal instead of just the cut version?
Also a back rest would be good..., get your designing head on!

Amazing mate, its the most fantastic and bestest thing i have ever seen !!! Eyelashes emoticon
BTW mate i am having some T shirts done, and one has your quote on it Laughing emoticon your a star !!!!

Dunk

Yes matey i have, the problem is the cost involved in making them. I could go about doing them but i really dont think people would want to pay almost double what the other ones cost. I will put it to the fabricator and work out a price.
As for the backrests ........ well that has been ongoing for some time, both myself and another forum member are trying to come up with something ............ Ssssh Mums the word ! Nerd emoticon

How's the progress on the LX rack going on?

I've noticed that there isn't much space between the seat & the taillight...

Hi There,

Sorry i forgot to update this.

Well ......... unfortunately its a no goer i spent a large amount of time creating a rack and mounting plate for the smallframes but as you say there is not much space at all.

One rack was made and fitted but because the surface area of the baseplate was so small, i just couldnt make any more because i could foresee bolts shearing off etc which is not good.

Sorry for the bad news Crying or Very sad emoticon
