Does a club rack fit a Z Power reproduction grabrail

#1 PostAuthor: Wardy » Fri Jun 26, 2020 12:42 pm

Can anybody confirm if a club rack fits a Z Power reproduction grabrail.

My rack (nice bit of kit) doesn't marry up with the repro grabrail i currently have. I want to make sure when i get a new grabrail it fits the rack.

Cheers.

Wardy.

Just to clarify I think the repro grabrail in question is from M&P and seems to be slightly different to all the grabrails encountered so far, there have been100 club racks made so far and this issue hasn’t arisen before :shock:

Which model is it for and do you have a photo of the part in question fitted to the bike?

Hi Al.

Chris has already done some groundwork for me and it seems the Z power grabrail is going to be fine.

The grabrail i have has a slight peak to it and some of the angles are slightly different. . You wouldn't really notice this unless you were trying to fit a rack.

Hi Gary how are you? There was me thinking this was the 1000R. :oops: Speaking of which how is it now?

Hi Al.

Nice to hear from you.
No its not the 1000R - which now i have the flatsides on, goes very very well indeed - just like its on Viagra.

Its a 78 Zed, just tinkering with things to try and get it set up for a bit of touring / camping, when the Virus permits.

Trust you are keeping well.

Gary.
