Storminyte Posted September 25, 2008 #1 Posted September 25, 2008 Looking for some advice....I just got the trunk rack and I noticed on the rack there is a sticker that says 10 lb limit....I am assuming that limit is actually meant for what the trunk can hold but is that 10 lb limit realistic?? I want to be able to put a bag on there for a trip but also don't want to damage the trunk. Can anyone help with limitations?? Thanks in advance... Dee
Roadhand Posted September 25, 2008 #2 Posted September 25, 2008 10 lb limit realistic? Most likely not. I have a bag I place on my 07 whenever I travel and it weighs around 15lbs. I just place most everything I will need for the day and I do not open the trunk with the bag on the rack. I would not put much more than this on the rack. It may hold more but why damage the trunk lid
Little Bob Posted September 26, 2008 #3 Posted September 26, 2008 I have Iron Rider bag that i put on my 07. It weighs in at about 14 lbs. No problems Like said before do not open the trunk with the bag on it. :guitarist 2:
flb_78 Posted September 26, 2008 #5 Posted September 26, 2008 I once carried a bag that weighed in around 80lbs on the rack from Texas to Illinois. No problems.
LWesson Posted September 26, 2008 #6 Posted September 26, 2008 I once carried a bag that weighed in around 80lbs on the rack from Texas to Illinois. No problems. Did you ride a wheelie all the way there???? Cheers, Leonard

Condor Posted September 26, 2008 #8 Posted September 26, 2008 Only thing I put on the rack are jackets and lighter stuff. I ride one up everywhere so a duffle with clothing fits great in the passenger seat. MOF it makes for a great back rest. Trunk and saddles are filled with everyday do-dads. Spare tire..extra motor..coolant..tools...granola bars... water.
