Excellent product, looks great. I'd recommend installing the risers with the rack so that you cal get under the rack for cleaning.

Rack has provided good service over past four years. First trip was from Oklahoma City, OK to Fairbanks, AK. The rack and matching bag worked great, and the bag (Also Kury) was, and remains adequately waterproof without the cover. Several trips inside Alaska in all kinds of weather has shown that this is a great product that is meant for the long haul. This past July, I made a run from Fairbanks to Penticton, British Columbia and back, and noticed that the rubber insert was coming off from the top down. A little squirt of silicon underneath and momentary pressure fixed the problem. This is a solid investment for the serious tourer.

Great looking rack! Had this installed about a year ago and have used many times. I never load more than about 10 pounds on the rack. I don't have the spoiler and don't plan on getting one, so I didn't get the risers. I think it looks better without them and I've had no problems with the trunk lid cracking or being able to clean underneath it.

Very nice rack for light weight gear. I added the larger star washers to spread out whatever I put on the plastic. Smooth install with good instructions. However, drilling your trunk makes you pucker... Tripple check your alignment and drill small pilot holes.

Love the look of this luggage rack, Kuryakyn dose it again with a great product
