Has anyone attempted to make side racks for hard bags? I want my X1 to be more of a tourer and not into the soft bags. I was thinking of buying Givi sidebags or Pelican cases and creating my own side luggage racks. I guess I can purchase other side racks that will mount to the hard cases and then modify them to mount to the Buell.
Anyone attempt this?

Has anyone attempted this on another model?

The tail was drilled in 4 places and plastic coated screw eyes were placed there for bungee chords. I would to utilize these holes to attach cross members there, then bolt the rack to the passenger pegs and tail bolts.

I'm sure a welder could fab something for me but wanted to know if anyone had luck with this and had blue prints.
