A Rack for the XR650R

My Honda is evolving.... When I purchased it, it was set up to be a pure dirt bike. Then I went to work:

* I added all the equipment for it to be street legal and paid the registration for a license plate.

* Then I added the Acerbis Desert Tank. With the 6.4 gallon capacity, the bike has the range to eclipse 300 miles. This will be nice when riding out west in the Utah Canyonlands and in Death Valley.

* Finally, I made a decision on a solution to carry my gear. I opted for a rach and bag system. I am very pleased and should be able to lightly pack for up to a week of motorcycle, backcountry camping.
