Default Which solo rack for 12 RKC

Don't really like the style of the HD rack (and having to drop down money for the rack AND a mounting kit doesn't excite me either).

I like the Motherwell style but not sure which one I need.

2012 Road King Classic with a C&C Wide Solo seat.

I think it's the MWL-421 but not 100%.

What are you guys using other than the HD rack.

Found this thread: https://www.hdforums.com/forum/touri...gage-rack.html but couldn't find anything by the original poster if he had got it to work.

I've found thread with older RKC's with the rack installed but they were all the older models with the "rail" around the top of the fender which I don't have. Don't know if the fender holes line up the same with the new and old.

Guess I'll give it a try and post my results.

Cheap and looks very similar to the one you listed above. Works with mustang style seat mounts too.

I'm with you on the Motherwell solo.
Call and ask them, but I believe you are correct. They will give you the specifics of C&C vs Danny Gray vs XYZ.
You will love the fit and finish.

$#!t... Just realized you on a 2012 and the rack I sent in the link only works up to 05. Maybe check with the ebayer to see what he says before ordering

Sorry bout that!

All good, I don't know if there's a difference or not. Some sites say '97 and up and some say thru 05 for the same style.
