Default Luggage rack on a Super Glide. Let's see 'em

Thinking about some over night trips on the FXDC this summer. Like to see what luggage racks are being used on Super Glides.
Thanks!

I like the solo look so much better than 2-up, so I got the detachable sideplates for my sissy-bar and have several ways to rig up for trips. When I get back, I can quickly revert back.

With "Lazy Rider" as backrest:

With 2-up seat and rack (no Luggage):

Back to Solo:

I also bought the Deluxe Motorcycle Touring Pack with Studs from Leatherup for the times I might need extra storage (have not used it yet.....until this Memorial Day....trip to Arkansas planned with ridding buddies):

couldnt get the pics to download but the dyna solo rack with kriega dry bags works great. I used a 30L and a 20 L and had enough gear for a week long trip. No handling issues with gear on the bike . Great in the mountains and all gear stayed dry in day long thunderstorms with hard rain.

This is a chrome Motherwell rack that I plastidipped black.


It's low profile, but does the trick.

I went with a quick release rack after finding it at a local swapmeet.

I bought a Motherwell 7 inch and didn't like how it mounted up. With just the two mounting points it would wobble a bit under load and I became convinced it couldn't be good for my fender. Looked great though. I replaced it with the Harley Rigid Solo Rack. I don't like the look quite as much and wish it was a couple inches longer, but it seems rugged enough (heck, you can mount a passenger seat on it).
