Looking good, and, that was one quick week!

Got any shots of the rack/rack build?

Its raining here suspending my ride plans.I built the rack at work,but will eventually post up a pic of rack only.I am a certified welder.The reason I built the rack is because the ones on the market seem to set to high,not following the lines of the motorcycle.I dont care for the look of the shad box either.Might sell and get a leather top box.

That looks pretty good. Laurie has that box on her bike and I agree with you that the stock luggage rack seems a bit high.
