Rear luggage plate options for XT660R
 

Hi,

I'm new here and about to buy an XT660R. I'm hoping you can help me. I want to get a rear plate but struggling to find one where it is flush to the pillion seat so I can carry a medium drybag along the bike, but also wide enough so when I have a pillion, I can still have the dry bag across the bike.

I've had a look on previous threads but I can't find anywhere that sells a flat alu plate that fits onto the R model. I've seen a few 'homemade' ones on here (that look really good) such as what Peatbog was selling, but he no longer seems on the forum.

So in short does anyone have any ideas of where or who I could get a medium / large flat alu plate (and attachments) for an xt660r. Preferably so it doesn't cost too much to ship to the UK.

So far what I've found is;

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/3512429586...%3AMEBIDX%3AIT - but it's in Australia

http://www.zenoverland.com/luggage-p...age-plate.html - looks good but not sure it will fit with an R - I think it might only fit the Z

http://www.off-the-road.de/en/XT-660...T-660-R-X.html - I'd prefer a plate (and a bit bigger)

Any ideas welcome and apologies if I've missed a previous thread that would have solved my question - I have looked - I promise!

This is what you want, fits on top of the standard tubular Yamaha accessory rack...

Made and sold by aliwakeskate of this parish! :023:

There's a Yamaha rack up for auction on ebay at the moment:
