Default Luggage Rack Load Rating

Time to get a luggage rack.&nbsp\\; I see HD has 3 types.&nbsp\\; 2 mount to the sissy bar and 1 mounts to docking points (detachable).
Naturally the the latter one would hold more, but what are the ratings of each.&nbsp\\; No need to pay more to get the same job done.
&nbsp\\;
Thanks

I think it is written under the racks. Check at your dealer

All the current H-D ones I've checked are rated for 15 lbs., but keep in mind that this number has nothing to do with their actual weight bearing limits and everything to do with liablility.&nbsp\\;
