Luggage rack options?
I have an 07 Street Glide and I'm looking for options on luggage racks... I have looked at the HD ones but wanted to see what other brands and looks are out there. My bike has a detachable passenger backrest on it as well. Any opinions are appreciated!

I use the Kuryakyn rack on my RKC. It mounts with 3 allen screws so it requires a few extra minutes to install/remove but this also makes it unlikely it will be stolen. I remove the rack and the pillion when I'm not touring.
The benefit of this rack over a H-D detachable rack is it mounts much lower on the bike, which lowers the center of gravity of the stuff you put on the rack. I'm not sure if the affects are noticable but it's something I considered when I bought it.

I know you're looking for other options but I've been real happy with the HD two up detachable rack. I use it with my Kuryakyn Ultra Tour bag.
