CB160 luggage rack

Post by Snakeoil » Tue Feb 25, 2014 6:24 pm

This may not be the legal place to post this, but I was wondering if anyone had a luggage rack for a CB160 they want to sell. Ugly is okay. It is intended to be utilitarian. I decided to run my CB160 in the MotoGiro this spring instead of my CL77 and would like a rack for my bag.

Thanks,
Rob

I have one for a CB175 K4 to K6 (vertical engine) maybe someone will know if the frames are similar, I should have a picture somewhere, I'm in the UK it is in the US, I will post it when I find it.

I found the pictures, the extra brackets are for the K7 frame which is the bike it was fitted to, they reposition the indicators.

This was it fitted to the bike.

Not sure if it will fit either. Might need some dimensions.

What do you want for it?

Regards,
Rob

Hi Rob, I was thinking $30 + shipping, it is currently at zip 44026 in OH.
I may be able to get my daughter to take some measurements of the rack if you need anything specific, I have the bike here in the UK if you need any measurements from that.

Price is right. But I'd have to modify it, maybe weld on it to make it fit. I hate to wreck original stuff like this. Let me think about it.

I'm thinking of just making one from scratch. Good winter therapy project.

Thanks,
Rob

Okay Rob no problem, if the rear damper positions match I'm sure it could easily be made to fit, the CL(K7) I have is quite different from the K4-K6 it was designed for, there are some more pictures on my Photobucket page of it fitted which may be useful to you.
