Anyone ever built a side rack to carry your board on an S1WL? (yaright...lol)...but thought I'd try!

Hit them up, not cheap but they get it done, excellent workmanship.

This is what I'm looking for... But I was just wondering if anyone had done it on a Buell and where the connection points were - or what was improvised...

I carried my stick on a motorcycle once.
the windage issues it created swore me off of ever trying it again.
Is it really so hard to bum a car from someoene?
now, snowboards are a different story

Have 2 cars...Just don't want to drive all around anymore for a session. Lots of friends have them on their bikes with no problems - just nobody has a Buell! Scooters, Hondas, a Gullwing! I rarely see a Buell in La Jolla/San Diego.

My friend has a Vespa and goes on the freeway with his board on the side, and I was riding all over Bali in April/May with my board on the side....

Hey- I'm all for it, I just can't lug my damn August big gun or even my T&C around on my little s2.

Yea, I was looking at those, but I think I'd have to buy 2! I think one, with the wind, would be torqueing that one connection point way too much - but I like the connection-plate of a compression fitting.

Looks like Handy MetalMart and Home Depot!
