Rear Fender Luggage Rack
I got mine from Dennis Kirk but they are on Ebay alot.
They don't say for a Nomad though. You have to buy the one for a Yamaha.

Rear Fender Luggage Rack
I think what TC references is the Yamaha that has a line of rear fender racks made for its 'Star' line. The rack is off of a Royal Star and is part number STR-4NK51-20-00 retailing for about $90. You can find them on E-bay regularly selling (new in package) for $50 or less..source Gadget.

Rear Fender Luggage Rack
Gadget Reference: The Yamaha rack bolts up fairly easily to the Nomad fender only requiring the attachment tabs at the front of the rack be bent outward about 1/2 inch. You can attach the rack with the same bolts that formerly held your pillion bracket (but they're painted black) or you can find some nice looking metric cap screws or chrome/polished bolts the same length.
In the photo below you'll see a rear view of the rack and note in the center bottom is a chrome cap. The rack has provision for a third bolt here but I chose not to use it (requires drilling another hole in the fender) and glued a simple chrome cap in that space. The two front bolts are plenty strong enough to hold anything you might choose to put on the rack. Got to: http://www.gadgetjq.com/fender_rack.htm

That don't look like the rack I bought. I will post a pic of mine tomorrow. It is hanging on the garage wall as i went back to two up look.
One thing I must say is when I bent the bracket to fit the flow of the fender it cracked the chrome a little and got a bit of rust. I used a sos pad to remove the rust and painted the brackets black to match my fender.
