Howdy. I know this has been beat around some,but in the search area I didn't see this listed so...has anyone purchased and mounted the Kuryakyn adjustable trunk lid rack on the voyager? I thought I saw this one mentioned once but couldn't find it. (It has add-on spacers where it mounts to lid and conform to curvature of different trunks) Any "helpful" info on any Voyager racks is welcome. Thanks.

Longhunter, a lot of Voyager owners use this Yamaha Venture rack. It speads the load better than most. http://www.powerpartsplus.com/pages/Catalog/Product/20151?categoryID=198&subCategoryID=398&catalogFilter1ID=1&catalogFilter2ID=4&catalogFilter3ID=90&catalogFilter4ID=69&catalogFilter5ID=0

Here are a couple of options:
Cobra luggage rack from J&P Cycles

This is the one I have on my bike. I like it because it was designed for this bike and it sets fairly level.
Custom World International (CWI) luggage rack from Cruiser Customizing

They also have saddlebag top rails and matching side rails. Not cheap, but damn do they look good. I ordered these for my bike. I have the top rails on the saddlebags and waiting for the siderails to arrive.

Hope this helps

Thanks for the replies . That helps. Apparently the Power Sports Venture rack is out of stock. I think I'll stick with a tubular design but the flat racks and accessories look good (and yeah, they ain't giving them away!). The adjustable rack I've seen looks fine but I'm concerned that the screw on spacers could be a weak spot. Was hoping someone had tried it with good results. So now, the search is on.

Were those top rails difficult to install?

Definately not. 3 bolts each, chrome hardware and rubber washers on each side of the top for protection. Took about 20 minutes each.
