samsonite bags
Anyone know if a samsonite luggage rack made for the Yamaha's, XS etc..can be made to fit our bikes? wanting to put it onto an 80 1000. I can see the upper rear mounts are in a different spot but most things can be rigged some how. I'm wondering if the actual frame will fit over our seats and rear fenders ect...Rob

Thanks guys. The rack I'm looking at is from a Yamaha XS1100. I've got detailed photos of the rack system and Cliffs Samsonite rack on his bike. The upper rear mounting holes are at a different angle but they look almost in the same spot on the rack. The side bags look like they will be farther back by a few inches than the GS rack system but hopefully that isn't a problem. In the photos the guts of the rack systems look identical so I'm hoping the width is as well. Was hoping someone had experience putting a Yamaha setup onto a GS. Thanks for the heads up with michaelj_444 I'll see what he has.Last edited by azr; 09-05-2011, 12:21 PM.Rob
