I purchased this rack last summer for my 2021 Goldwing. I ended up attaching an Igloo cooler which kept my food and beverages cold. It was a lifesaver to say the least. We ended up hitting temperatures of 107° while riding through the Los Padres National Forest . The cold beverages along with my “Big Ass” cup holder Kept our beverages cold and we remained hydrated during the ride. The rack did not appear to change the performance or handling of the motorcycle whatsoever. It’s a great addition if you’re just looking for a little bit more space for your bike. 🇺🇸👮🏻‍♂️

I've used this rack for the last 2 years. My wife and I have done over 5000 miles with it. The smaller bags and trunk on 18+ help me decide to purchase this. Each year we take at least 2 long distance trips. The extra space and easy removal when you get to where you are going makes it convenient. I use a 40L Nelson Rigg Hurricane duffle bag and stack a 10L Nelson Rigg on top of that. Enough clothes for a week and extra in case the temperature changes. There are no problems with lean angles, weight issues, or exhaust heating up the bags. You never notice it back there. The license plate is covered but I took Max McAllister advice (watch the War Horse project) and photocopied my plate and attached it to my bag. The brake lights are not covered. Be careful when entering driveways or parking lots with steep slopes because it may drag. Hope this answered some of your questions.

I used to pull a trailer, but now I have a rack on my 2012, not this particular one, a homemade one. I use a hi-viz 30L dry bag from MEC.

It never ceases to amaze me as to how “stuff” people insist on travelling with. I rode across Canada last year, took a ferry across to Maine, and back out west to Alberta. I was on the road for 4 weeks with my 17 F6B which as most people would know has no trunk. So I had 2 saddlebags for everything bike related plus rain gear etc etc. on my back seat was a medium sized waterproof duffel bag. I tend to do laundry every second or 3rd day on the road and that’s it. It just blows me away that people would travel with a weeks worth of clothing …on a motorcycle and “somehow” fill another duffel or two.

@dennisberg570 10 месяцев назад

More space for a laptop , I Pad , satellite dish and small tv .

@bettyschwartz1539 11 месяцев назад

I use a waterproof dufflebag from Nelson rigging it works great awesome little handy rack

@FxRiderST 11 месяцев назад

Hitch on a motorcycle is something I've never understood. Where is the fun of riding? Being able to use its size getting into tight spaces? Ease of maneuvering in traffic? If I need to take lots of stuff, I'd take a car and trail a bike.

@masoodkhan3287 11 месяцев назад

1000 % agree with you.

@lnk4328 11 месяцев назад

The "fun of riding" is still there.

@jimcarleton 11 месяцев назад

Nice video Cruiseman. Here was my thinking when determining this style tray versus a trailer. Let's say you have 30 lbs of stuff loaded on that tray. The tray is roughly 3' from your rear axle. That's a moment arm of 90 ft lbs of downward rotational force on the rear suspension. Added to whatever you have in the OEM bags and trunk, plus a possible co-rider. That's a lot of downward force on the rear suspension parts and tire. Contrast a trailer (I too have a Bushtec) that can hold up to roughly 200 lbs. (that's a lot of crap) which is supported mainly by the trailer wheels. Much lighter tongue weight and no shock loading due to bouncing, etc. The tray concept is probably good for very lightweight day trip needs, but if you're in it for the long haul and traveling an extended time, save the bike and get a trailer. Just my thoughts sir.

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

Fair points.

@mikeb8342 3 месяца назад

A 200# trailer should have a tongue weight of 20-30# (10-15% of trailer weight). That puts you in the exact same boat (albeit with more gear).

@dannywhite2289 11 месяцев назад

I am curious does your exhaust pipes make whatever you carry get warm or hot, I can't wait until you have review it after you have try it out or rode for a while.

@azmotorcop 11 месяцев назад

C-way is the way to go, comes with a dry bag and the Goldstrike cooler fits perfectly on it. Looks much better!

@roadglide 11 месяцев назад

Clean look and nicely designed. Nice job Cruise.

@jandrewsmith3992 11 месяцев назад

I see another installation opportunity for more LED lights.

@motorider4130 11 месяцев назад

Why not just flip the cargo tray over so you have a flatter surface to mount a bag to? You might lose that anti-rattle screw usage but you could put a larger bag etc on without issue.

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

I suppose you could do that.

@mikeaho4143 11 месяцев назад

I currently have a pakit rak & bag for my 2021 Goldwing tour dct and I absolutely love it. We can store two weeks of clothing with that and the bags & trunk. Very easy to mount and use without using straps.

@ShaftDrive 7 месяцев назад

Mosko moto makes some nice bags that would fit.

@tomvoncharon6359 11 месяцев назад

Thanks. Been wanting one of those.

@dray439 11 месяцев назад

It may have been a different brand, but I've seen FB posts where the bracket gave way where the tubes slide in. They may have over loaded the rack, but I'd be careful.

@tomvoncharon6359 2 месяца назад

Did you ever find a decent bag that fits this rack. Just curious...I'm looking.

@duggsdoggs3696 2 месяца назад

What you did not address is exhaust heat and fumes.

@robertheneghan766 3 месяца назад

How much weight can you carry on this rack Is it limited to your tongue weight when you haul a trailer

@gillane175 11 месяцев назад

I'm looking at getting C-WAY'S Canoe 2.0+ rack this winter. With their hitch design I think it's a nicer solution...albeit, alot more expensive than Showchrome's.

@adrespostbus201 7 месяцев назад

Nice construction that c-way but... already heavy without luggage...

@life_on3s490 11 месяцев назад

I have tge exact one on my 06 GW trike, i have a small cooler bolted to it for drinks on small rides

@life_on3s490 11 месяцев назад

How do i drop a photo to you

@pinball2002 11 месяцев назад

Does it block your license plate when u put something on it?

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

Anything more than 9" tall might.

@stephencarr7173 10 месяцев назад

I see you are not sporting your Remus exhaust. Did you remove it?

@texaslonestarrider 11 месяцев назад

Very Cool! 😎

@brucewaters4262 11 месяцев назад

How much weight could this hold. If I missed that in the video I’m sorry but I also checked the website and didn’t see anything This would be perfect for my tools at work but that could be up to 40 lbs

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

I don't think the issue is the rack, but the tongue weight capacity of the hitch itself.

@GEEwingingit 11 месяцев назад

Will the Bag or Cooler get warm from the Exhaust?

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

Possibly, but it is sort of centered between the exhaust pipes.

@kevinhawley8803 11 месяцев назад

Looks like you would automatically block the view of the license plate and that would be illegal

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

Some suggest taking a photo of the license plate, printing a copy and taping it to the back of a bag or cooler.

@jamesduckworth3736 11 месяцев назад

How about the heat coming from the exhaust pipes would it not melt plastic coolers? Or soft bags ?

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

Not sure the exhaust is THAT hot to melt a plastic cooler. And, the exhaust should mostly travel under the bag. It could get some exhaust dirt and grime, however.

@bobmerrison9178 11 месяцев назад

Are tail gaters behind you going to notice that low down rack though?

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

If they are THAT close to you, they are probably going to hit you anyway.. We are only talking 9".

@ChadGrimes 11 месяцев назад

Didn't see a max carry weight? Does it reduce lean angle?

@cruisemansgarage 11 месяцев назад

Only affects the angle if you are doing wheelies. I could not find a max carrying weight, but that is probably limited to the tongue weight capacity of your trailer hitch.
