I ordered the rear luggage rack from Twisted Throttle yesterday (paid for express delivery) and found out today it is on back order and 6 - 8 weeks away. http://www.twistedthrottle.com/trade/productview/3 745/474/

I'm not to hot on the Palmer rear rack (plus it has to be sent from the UK). http://palmerproducts.auto.officelive.com/images/3 0052009904.jpg

Does anyone know of other options for a rear rack? The OEM racks seem so fing high, but if you have stock numbers I can look into, I'd appreciate it!

I should just bite the bullet and order the Outdoorsman racks & cases, but $$$$....

Ive been using the OEM rack as a luggage rack. Mine got tweaked in a wreck a while back, and the bag vibrates a lot if its on it. Its been fine so far as a luggage rack. for strapping down small things. Shame you can't just order it individually.

Don't worry, you"ll love the Fehling rack. It works great and looks better than OEM. The OEM really isn't a rack anyway. It's more of a bracket to hold the top case. The Fehling rack is much more versatile,
Enjoy.
P.S. Yes I have one. No top case yet. No $$$, But I'm heavily considering the Happy trails low profile case to mount on the Fehling rack.

I have a Fehling rack too

Here's an oldish pic of it fitted on my bike.

Does the Fehling rack fit along with the H&Becker side racks?

Don't know. I use Touratech and it integrates well with those.

No, it has to be modified to work with the factory Journey mounts.
