Good quality "6pack rack"

[peterlocal22]

I have a PRM. Rode the shit out of the bike for a week at St. Anthony with it, no problems at all. Sure was nice dumping in 2 gallons of fuel when I got to Devils Dune for some play time.

 

2 gallon on the back, wow

Let me add that the frame that I broke was an old '88 and the year it broke was around 2000, and it had alot of miles on her over those 12 years.

 

Ya I used to love be able to hammer the 7 miles it takes to get from my house to Coal Hill and then top off the gas tank with the 1 gallon of gas, and then still have enough gas to have a fun fast ride back home.

 

I would look for a rack that has the gas tank centered behind the bike and that has nothing blocking the exhaust pipes. My PowerCore silencers where literally an inch away from the aluminum plating on the rack and it would just get covered in exhaust crap. So ya, I wouldnt recommend the Armadillo "out and back" rack to anyone.

 

Iridea250r, your rack looks pretty good. Tank centered behind ya, a big tank too, plus it looks like there's no exhaust pipes blowin' anywhere on the rack, hard to tell tho. How much does two gallons of premix, plus the weight of the can weigh ? Someone with an older frame, might want to consider gussets on the subframe.

I just took it off yesterday (done with the dune trips for the year) and there is no oil on it at all from the exhaust. I do run T5's though so they may be angled differently. The weight isn't that much at all, maybe 15 lbs, rider weight can vary that much EASILY.
