Kind of hard to tell, but do you have enough space to fully open the saddle bag
tops with the top rack on there ?

thanks,

To be honest I am not sure I can open them all the way.......
I know I can open them most of the way (soft bags N all).
I will try it this afternoon and take a picture and post it.
Once I find (bite the bullet) and get hard bags it will be more of an issue.
I guess the issue is not a huge one for me so far.
I will only use the rickrak for those long trips (over a week) and if I want full access it only takes seconds to remove it.
So far I still have room for the cooler on the back seat to.
