storage rack?

interesting...didn't think you got them for S2s...

I didn't know you could get them either. I had my camera in my bag so Dezzy took a couple of pics...

Betcha it's an S1 rack and he's got a lovely collection of star cracks in his upper clam now.

It was pinkem from here . . . I don't know if he posts much these days but he'll maybe be along sometime to tell us all where he got this. I'm guessing it's an S1 rack too

Hi there,

Sorry have not been on here for a while....

Yes that was me. Great to do the convoy for a few miles. Got some attention for sure.

Nice car you have there

Enjoy

The rack is a stainless number which I converted from an ebay purchase design for a triumph, but works well on the elise. Just the right size. Cost only £60 and well worth the money. I use it a lot. Let me know if you want one and I will look out the link.

Thanks

Check your clam mate - the reason that they didn't do one for the S2 ('cos they did on the S1) is that the clams are vac-formed and much thinner. I'd have thought mounting a luggage rack and putting anything on it would star crack it like crazy.

No it is not through the clam. I have attached this using brackets so not to cause damage

Takes a good weight too. No rust either after full winter season.
