Hi GStry, as i said before, i cannot wait to have it as a From Gerhard -To Gerhard Xmas gift. Will post photos of course, let me get it and fit it first.

Can i say it should fit perfectly for the XTX's out there as well, i had many adventures on my XTX before i was converted to a RRRRR, and a rack on the back really is a must.
This is a much better alternative to any of those expensive racks from Yamaha and one or 2 other manufacturers- most of those racks looks like it has anorexia anyway and i still have to see it withstand long trips loaded with more than just a sleeping bag. Searching the web for XT racks does not bring up allot op solutions, and this is the best i have seen so far.
Geoff , you will be moving few of these soon...less flying and more manufacturing coming up for you in 2011.
