Luggage rack problem
Hi people hope everything is going good for you all.
I have an issue with trying to find measurements for the rear fender SOLO luggage rack for a 99-04 Heritage softail classic this is the one that hugs the guard/fender and only has 2 mounting points down the centre of the rack. I am after the distance between the 2 mounting holes front to rear. My seat bolts from the side to the frame. I belive there is a seat that has a single bolt tab at the rear this is not my seat but where this tab bolts too is the same point as the front mount of the luggage rack. Can anyone please assist. Thanks

I'm soon to look for a rear luggage rack as well to hold a jug of gas.
I jumping my battery this morning, my passenger seat lockdown bolt scratched the top of the rear fender so I think I'm also wanting the rack to hide the scratch.

Just found this one, although it's listed only for a 2005. Not sure if I like it.

I ordered a Motherwell MWL-151C for a later slim but I think it will do what I want (hopefully) if not it gives me somewhere to start. The one you sent me sit behind the passenger seat, I'm after one for a solo setup.

Yes, you're right on that. I didn't notice that, silly me. I, too, am looking for the solo setup.

What's your year? I've got a 2002 FLSTC Heritage Softtail Classic and I just found those Motherwell racks aren't compatible.

Mine is same as yours but 2004 I will need go put a mount at the front by the solo seat weather that would be a single mount or a double mount like on the 2006 but mine and yours bolt the seat on to the frame so which ever way it goes l will need go drill into the rear guard so I need the rack first to locate the front mount.

Found a number of ones that will work. This one is a Motherwell.
