Evening all, we are back in Kiwiland getting our shit together to come back and start, we can't wait to get back.
Can someone please give us some dimensions as follows,
Rear rack behind the seat on the moto, the tube diameter and also the length and width of the rack top area, I need to check our giant loop base will work.
The factory luggage rack on the spare wheel I would like the diameter of the rack metal bars please.
Many thanks Andi

Spare wheel luggage rack diameter is 9.5mm all over.
Can't help with rear seat rack though. I did look at one on my mates. 2 sizes used. Pretty sure it is 16mm and 22 or 25mm ERW tube attached at the shock mount.

I don't have the rear rack, but only the standard touring seat. What I did find is that with my Saddlemen Cruiser Bag, it fouled the jerry can. www.easyr.com.au/saddlemen-sad-3516-0270-tactical-deluxe-cruiser-taI think any tunnel type bag might have the same issue. Because I was going on the Spirit of Tasmania, I couldn't take the jerry can anyway, so left it off and all was fine.  |

Jerry is fune on the ferry…..just needs to be dry. That's what I thought, I've had a couple of friends say they lost theirs. So I called them and they said not if it's had petrol in it. So to avoid losing it, I left it at home and bought a plastic one from the green shed. Left it at the last servo before boarding to come home. I guess it all depends on who you get on the phone, and on the day you board as to whether it's 'actually' fine. There was a BMW with a Ural sidecar on the same ferry, his jerry wasn't even questioned.  |

Always dry mine and run exhaust gas into it for a bit…..then leave it open for the trip to the ferry…….no smell. OK for 6 trips. 👍
