Unhappy weird luggage rack help please!

Gentlemen!

Here is a mystery to solve:

Recently got a beautiful '98 FLTRI 95th edition (instead of my totalled FLHTC - :'( ).
Somebody used to have a weird luggage rack on it: the hole spacing is 15 3/4" X 8"
It is not even near what moco had for the past 30yrs, nor it seems to be a Kyryakin part...

The dealership where I got it as well as mine are out of ideas.

Anybody can think of anything with such mounts?

Looks like the old shovelhead era rack. That's what I have on my bike. I put it on before the MoCo came out with the later style. Look for one from the 70's to early 80's.

I would just fill the holes with some nice stainless buttonheads, and drill it for a nice easy to find rack...very few people would ever notice.
