Buy a fender bib and give yourself some options. The rack (as well as the PP) are easy to remove. The best thing about the Deluxe is how easily you can change the look.

Took my 2-up off (Mama don't ride), so the rack looked dumb. Took that off too.

I like the full-boat look but that's just me . . .

Off! Solo (so low) is the only way to roll! Show off that long, sexy rear fender!

I really bought the bike for Me, not others and I prefer being practical over looks every time while satisfying my likes and needs.

When I go solo I just take off the rear seat and sissy bar (QD) and put on the solo rear seat/backrest I made (Sig pic) as I still like the looks of her with the bags on and they do come in handy when U Need them.

U'll never get everyone to like the looks of Ur bike, Thats why so many in here just say U have to make her UR OWN...

I'd say do whatever you like the best. Me personally, Mine is going to come off 2 minutes after I get her home along with the seats.
