    Luggage rack for CT70, will this work?

    I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this rack and specifically with whether or not it will fit on a 1992 era CT70? Thanks for any help you can give.

    IMO those suck - there's no room for luggage.

    He didn't ask if they sucked, he asked if they would fit
    Yep, It'll fit and carry a 6 pak nicely

    Not 100% sure that it'll fit without tweaking/modifying it a bit first and, it is small. However, these do have a number of locations that work well with bungee strap hooks, and a vertical bar which keeps cargo off the seat, which compensate for the lack of square footage (compared to the "standard" type, which was actually an aftermarket part, as well). The rear mounting points are an interesting tradeoff...sparing your fender from being dented, but at the expense of scraping away paint at two points on the frame (four, if your frame doesn't have threaded bosses in those locations and you have to use hex nuts, instead). Makes a good lifting handle, which is handy to have. Maybe some would be happier thinking of this rack as a lifting handle that can also be used as a carrying rack

    Thanks, I appreciate all the replies so far. I think I will order it and give it a try. I'm not worried about the size. As stated above, it would work well for a 12 pack of refreshments and it might even work to bungee a milk crate to it for carrying smaller items. I'll report back on how things go once I get it. There may be other people considering getting one.
