Default Motherwell solo pics

Would like to see some solo racks on a streetbob. Thinking of getting a motherwell but wanna see some good pics. Most ones I've seen have been close ups of rack. Any pics would be appreciated. Thanks

Got a couple here http://s600.photobucket.com/albums/t...cpZZ1QQtppZZ20

Be aware that the motherwell's only mounts to the seat nuts. Both mounting points are in line and centered across the rack. I never use mine to strap anything with any weight at all to it because I've seen them put dents in the fender just by rocking back and forth.

Not an issue for me - on the rare occasions I need a bag I either use a roll bag on the handlebars or yank the rack and solo seat and put my two-up stock seat with a hooker under it.

Hmmn.....I was looking to get a bag and strap to it. Like workout clothes and socks and maybe my lunch for work. Will it work for that?

Here's what I had when I first bought my bike. The bag is a kuryakyn custom roll bag. Make sure you get the mother well with the wider front.




Here's the motherwell with the wider triangle front. The other is a 1inch square and it wobbles a lot and some had it bend their fender. I had no problems with this one and I even had a laptop strapped to the top of the bag and it held fine.

Oh and what I like with the Kury bag is the straps are built in and work great. I didn't have any of the straps touch my paint. I just wrapped them around the rack and pulled tight. they also have d-rings built in as well. I don't have the Motherwell anymore, but this is what I do with the bag now. Works great for work or an overnighter!

Personally I like a low profile two up (drag specialties predator) and just rest the bag on that and strap it to a strut or passenger peg. Without the bags, the slick seat is nicer than a solo and a rack IMHO.
