Default Probably a stupid question.....
I pick up my 14' SGS in a few weeks. I ordered a Corbin SOLO seat as I will never have a passenger. If I want a quick release rear luggage rack....do I have to buy a SOLO rack or can I buy a detachable TWO UP rack?

What is my best option if I want as little hardware as possible on the bike when I am not using the rack but gives me the best footprint for a rack when I do take that 3 or 4 big trips a year.

Links would be VERY appreciated if at all possible.

Thanks

Your going to need the 4 point docking hardware to mount whatever you get for luggage.

Can I ask a question, stupid or not: why will you never have a passenger? And, what if it's tremendously helpful at some point to haul someone somewhere?

My wife just doesn't like bikes and I have never had a passenger in the past 25 years I have been riding.
