     When I bought my 2015 FXDB Street Bob, it never occured to me that there would be a problem fitting luggage racks... It's a Harley right? There has to be a HD supplied set up for it right? .... nope, there wasn't.

    Bit of research and a pack of $2 washers from Bunnings.... all fixed using these parts.

    Turn signal relocation kit from Great Bike Gear:

    Detatachable saddle bag mounts from the same company:

    www.greatbikegear.com - easybrackets for 2006 later dynas

    Geniune HD rack (#533511-06) & detachable kit (#53797-09): !! Please note that you have to drill out a hole in the detachable mounting kit to allow for the replacement nut that fills the void where the indicators were, once you take off the original fender mount you'll understand what i mean.

    Add 3 washes to the forward mount & 2 to the rear to push the mount outwards, now the rack fits the Aussie model and you can use saddle bags on your Street Bob.

     

    Hope that helps someone.

    Cheers
