FLRT luggage rack

[Stainless53]

Does anybody know what the weight limit for a luggage rack for the Freewheeler is? I heard someone who got one that is was only 12 lbs and he said he wouldn't have bought it if he'd known that. I would like to know the facts before I buy one. I also don't understand why my headlamp light gets wider when on bright instead of further down the road? Any responses would be appreciated.

Almost every luggage rack is "rated" for a very low weight. Called CYA.

As for the headlight. Never noticed it. Been running the VisionX since right after I bought it.

Yes the luggage rack is low weight to elimate law suites. I will load up to 15 to 20 lbs. You wouldn't want to much weight or hinges when opened.
Iuse risers under the luggage rack and star washers for a bigger foot print and support. Makes it easier to clean with the. Available in chrome or chrome black.

Where did you get the risers for the luggage rack? P/Ns? It is a PIA to clean under the rack!

Thanks,

Several venders carry them. I got mine from wing stuff. I suggest to get the set with star washers. I hade a spare set that are black chrome.
