Default Fender luggage rack

Thinking about getting a luggage rack for the rear fender of my Road King. There are Motherwell options for $100+. Dennis Kirk has another rack for $49. Is there an appreciable difference in the quality between these racks? https://m.denniskirk.com/factory-spec/solo-seat-luggage-rack-33-7205.p497316.prd/497316.skuhttps://m.denniskirk.com/factory-spec/solo-seat-luggage-rack-33-7205.p497316.prd/497316.sku

I couldn't figure out how to post links from my phone, but you get the idea.

I bought the Motherwell for mine, and like it a lot. I can't speak for the differences in quality between the two, but can say the quality of the MW-430 which is the one your bike would take if you have a two point rear mount on your solo. The quality is awesome.

That MWL-430 does seem like the one that would fit. I have a Mustang solo seat that uses the two original studs on the back. From the looks of the pictures on the Dennis Kirk website, the cheaper rack mounts the same way. Just curious how much difference there really is between a $120 and a $50 rack. Anyone have one of the cheaper ones? How's the quality?
