That's a nice piece of engineering there - So why, when you can do it for a modest sum, do MM and TT charge much higher prices? and they have the benefit of economies of scale.

I purchased a 1200GS rack (a TT one) from fleabagbay (�25), and manufactured a mounting from nylon block so that the rack sits in the same mounting points as the Yam top box. Give me the benefit of removing it and putting the box on - takes 2 minutes to swap.

I've also just completed a prototype for lamp mounts that bolt to the same fixing as the front subframe (headlight etc). I'll throw some pics up when it's fitted (waiting for a M8x60 SS bolt to arrive!)
