Not sure where to put this. I'm buying amglo's lovely TBA solo seat, that he has for sale over in the classified section. This means I'm going to pull off the touring seat, but will have an empty spot where the pillion seat goes. I'd like to put a Triumph America Seat Rack Chrome A9738029 in that spot, but I am not sure if it will fit, as I do have a tall sissy bar already there (and that IS staying put). I'm worried, where the rack curves up (at the back end) will interfere with the sissy bar. Does anyone have this set-up (ie does that rack fit ?) or can you suggest a good OEM alternative pillion rack? I'm hoping in the future, that I can then place a big bag there, for longer journeys. Thanks, Steve

I believe it will probably fit but one of the neat things about the bikes is the ability to easily remove/add racks etc when the journey requires them.

Thanks James,
Looks like a winner !!
And, I s'pose I could use another great t-shirt from Eddy.
Need to get my order in today. I want all the new stuff on before the Oyster Run (and praying for sun that day!).

that thing weighs a ton though, almost like having a small passenger back there!
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

They do weigh a lot, but I like the way they look.

It took a wee bit longer than usual to get the new fender rack from Eddy, but it did arrive yesterday. Looks pretty good with the "new" seat I got from a fellow rider (amglo). I think the seat is more comfortable than the stock seat. LOL, I love the reflection from the wax job.
