luggage rack

Has anyone put a luggage rack on their Voyager? Is it pretty easy? I'm trying to upgrade my newly purchased bike.

I went with the Kury luggage rack.

It was not too hard to install. Just make sure that you put blue tape on the lid to protect from scratching it during install. Do not use any loctite on the install bolts as that will crack the plastic around the holes.

Here is a link to my install pics:

I didn't use the aluminum feet that came with it to keep it lower but put some stainless steel washers on trunk. The trunk is much more rigid now.

In my opinion, the one from COBRA looks best and is also made for the Voyager :

I also use the Cobra rack. The hardest part for me was drilling that 1st hole in the trunk of a new bike. Tape trunk where it sets to prevent scratches, MAKE SURE ITS WHERE YOU WANT BEFORE DRILLING! Mark holes on opposite corners, the remove rack. Drill 1st hole. Install rack with 1 bolt, triple check position and mark remaining holes. Remove rack, drill holes and install rack perminetly.
