heya guys and gals
just wondering if any can help. im after some info and prices on putting a rack and bag on my 98 zx6r as the back and shoulders arent holding up too well after bringing a back pack, back from halls gap.
so far i have looked at a dririder tank bag but cant find info on the gearsacks /ventura racks& bags.
i had a gearsack rack and bag on the 250 but left them on the bike when i sold it.
any help would be great full thanks

gearsack are like rocking horse poo
ventura, RRP $360 rack and bag, or $220 without bag, but you need to supply tag out of bag or they will hit you with a surcharge
If you get a tank bag, make sure it is clean and your tank is clean or it will scratch your tank

go the Ventura...the Gearsack frame looks like the kids at the local TAFE
built 'em
and the the bag/frame issue Tanya mentioned
I might be able to overcome that ..if you just want a frame
for the rear of the 6R
cheers

I had a Ventura rack for my old 6 ('99 model) around here somewhere. Although I have a funny feeling it may have been thrown out.

If you guys can supply her with a ventura rack, there are heaps of bags available that will fit on the ventura set up, and cheaper too
The disadvantage of them is that they won't zip together like the ventura ones do.
If you're looking for a seat bag, they do make specific bags, just be careful you don't go too big because they do tend to flop around.
