Default Permanent solo luggage rack 08 FatBoy

I've taken the passenger pillon off which is very easy as it unscrews from the fender and pulls out from the rear of the solo seat. Very nice feature. I have detachable saddlebags and do not want to change the mounts for a detachable luggage rack. Does anyone make a solo luggage rack that fits into the rear of the solo seat, screwing down to the fender where the passenger pillon attaches? I see the aftermarket bibs but nothing as described above. Such an item would in effect be detachable as removal of the one screw on the fender and its gone. Just need some extra space when the bags are full.

It doesn't look like you have gotten a response yet about this rack. I talked to Motherwell yesterday looking for the same thing. I have a Xbones with a Fat Boy fender and want the rack they have for every bike but the the Bones or Fat Boy. They said in 1 month they would have a rack for the Fat Boy fender. Other than that it doesn't look like there is a rack made for it. Other than the detachable one but I don't like too much. There is the old style, 40s 50s FL rack that bolts on with 4 screws, one at each corner. I have thought about doing that.

Not sure if this is of interest. Mounts on one fender strut each side and top bolt on fender. On or off in 30 seconds. Milwaukee Twins rack from JP Cycles

Default 2008 fatboy luggage rack

powersportsoutletstore at goodstuff20035@hotmail.com has just what you need for $40 + shipping. Their ebay item # 290323865659 was exactly what I was looking for.
