    HELP is there anyone in the Auckland region who has a Touratech or similar rear luggage rack that I could see and take measurements of please.  PM or txt 021433005Thanks.All fixed thanks, printed off a pic from the net, blew it up to correct size and had a mate do a CAD drawing of it. Off to the plate cutting shop and $25 later got one cut out of 3mm ali.  Down to the anodizing shop and $20 later it looks like a bought one.

    thanks Grem, not sure but if they are the same as the 1200gs then it won't work but let me see a pic please. Just had a look on line and it could be a fix.  Can I see it please? 021433005.

    Racks are definitely not the same as the GS ones, as GS's use the Vario panniers, whereas I have aluminium ones.Left side: http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=250063&d=1320470449Right side: http://www.kiwibiker.co.nz/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=246659&d=1315726554Got your txt, literally got back this evening from 1.5 weeks down south. Could take specific pictures for you, or show you next weekend?

    Ah we're talking about a different rack. I've got a TRAX pannier system on order from SW MOTECH but I'm looking for a Touratech tail plate for strapping on a roll bag.  Thanks anyway.Hope you had a good time down south, we're away on the 28th for a couple of weeks to see the Wings over Wanaka  ;DThanks again for your help.

    Ah, ok. I have the standard rear top plate the GSA comes with, and bolted a Givi universal plate to that, to take a givi top box.Touratech, Twisted Throttle, Adv Designs... you can lose a few hours looking through their options...

    I have the Givi Monokey plate fitted to the bike (came with) but I like the Touratech aluminuim plate for strapping a roll bag.  I've had a mate draw up a CAD drawing off a photocopy and will get one laser/water cut at a local firm.  Fingers crossed it will work.Thanks for you help.

    🙂 Yes it's been for sale for months and he hasn't shifted his price.  I made contact to discuss but the seller was very abrupt and wasn't interested in an offer.  I could bring one in from Aus for little more than his reserve and all the nuts and bolts would be new. Today I sent a drawing to the laser cutters so hopefully will get one for $25+gst plus the cost of four countersunk bolts.Same seller has also been trying to sell his GS for a similar time, it has just come back on same price he's not one for shifting for the market so perhaps he's just flying a kite. http://www.trademe.co.nz/a.aspx?id=455631426
