Hi guys,

Posting because I want to get a pannier rack that also comes with a top box rack so that I have some storage space now that I'm doing some long distance riding. My rucksack is killing my back and they say they're unsafe anyway. But I can't seem to find a rack for my GSF600y 2001! I think I found a rear rack but the sides are what I'm more interested in. I'm not too concerned about boxes that actually fit (though that would be good for the future) I'm really just after a rack that I can tie bags and tents etc.

So why can't I find any racks when searching for"GSF600Y 2001 pannier racks"? Someone told me they're universal but I'm not so sure of that and I've seen nothing to confirm. Can anyone tell me if they are or maybe even send me any links to something that's compatible with my bike?

Thanks guys,

Louis

Perhaps I do, but that first link is for K models. I don't know if it also fits Y's, but it doesn't say. I already emailed them about the other, waiting on a reply so figured I'd post here too. It can't be the only one out there.

As far as I know, the business end of the K model is the same as the 2001 Y - i.e. a single "side to side" rear grab rail rather than two side rails?

Yeah I spoke to the guys at justbandits.com they told me I need the Y model, there's a few options on their site and they get quite pricey for the full kit which I'm after. Guess that's the cost that comes with products that don't sell in bulk! I'm sure the cost will be worth it though. Thanks for the input! Thumbs Up
