solo seat rack

pooker · 12-19-2008, 09:53 AM

Any one know of a solo rack for the 2008 1600?
I've seen one that has flat rails, I'm looking for one that has the round rail that will match the saddlebag rails.
Thanks

Thanks.
This is my first Nomad, not my first bike.
I really wanted the new Voyager but after seeing it at the show in Toronto,..........well I was very disappointed.
After a lot of research I decided that the best bike is the 2008 1600 Nomad so I bought it.

Pooker,

Welcome to the Nomad Nation from the Grand Canyon State. I'll look around and see if I can come up with a source for your rack.

Hey, thank you.
I've seen a few and they say the rack is "Yamaha".
The mount closest to the seat needs to be bent a little to fit the fender curve and it bolts right on with drilling.
The kicker is it seams to match the saddlebag rails too.
If I don't find anything else to compare then I will go with the Yamaha rack.

Hi Pooker!

You used to own a 900Lt, right? I think I know you from BTK.
Congratulations on your new Nomad!!!!!

Hello CheriAnn, yes, it's me. It's nice to know that there are some that keep track of me.lol
My 900,.........it's still sitting in the garage but I have to take it to the dealer. I traded for a new 2008 1600 Nomad, (Candy Fire Red/Metallic Diablo Black) Wow, it is nice looking bike.
Why did I part with the 900,......I just wanted a bigger machine.
There is nothing wrong with the 900, I had 60,000 kms on it and it still runs like fine Swiss watch. Whoever gets it will have themselves a GREAT bike.

Hey pooker

Welcome from Central NC. Sorry about the Red on your bike, but at least it has some of that beautiful black.... ;)

Pull up a seat and chat.

The one in my sig pic is a Yamaha. PM me if you need info. Seems you have done your research. There is no solo rack made that is Nomad specific. I looked for a months.
