    Doesn't it come stock?

    I just bought my first Husky a couple weeks ago and it has one on it.

    +1. I have a PMB rack and even though I've welded the subframe back together... it ain't never goin back on the bike.:busted: MoJavi and a Coyote for me from now on.

    I, too, have the PMB rack. It is extremely well made in all respects. However, the underlying subframe support is not designed for a load when the bike is used off-road. Mine has not broken, but I have seen many pictures of others'. I have dithered about removing the rack but have not because it is a good hand-hold when lifting after a tip-over. And because I can't find a replacement fender that's less than $50.

    Just got my Sequoia Tailbag by Cortech to go on my Borrego rear rack. Both purchaced
    from Turbo City. Very nice tailbag and rack. I'll post pics when I get chance.

    So here's how it all turned out. I basically went from the minimalist approach for onboard
    storage to I'd say slightly overkill. The rack is nice although it's much bulkier than the
    OEM and my new Tailbag is very nice although it kind of resembles a carry-on travel bag.
    The good part is that can be taken off by just undoing the built in bungie straps so I'm
    probably not going to leave it on when I'm riding trails. I think having this will inspire me
    to do some more long dualsport trips this summer so I'm excited for the most part. I'll
    try to post up a couple pics.

    All very nice looking stuff. Hers my answer to carrying the extra goodies. It all strips off and the factory rack goes back on once you get to the campsite, takes about 2 mins. to change over.

    I like your setup Big guy. That cushion must be plush for long distance rides. Great idea if that's what it is. :thumbsup:

    Yep that's what it is. it holds a 2 liter bottle on each side and a foam strip in the center. Makes for a real easy chair on the long distance runs. It's a cheap alternative to a custom seat and has the added benefit of carrying 4 liters of water or gas.
