I am replacing my Honda OEM rear rack with the Kijima rear rack today. Skip to the end of this description for clickable time indexes.
The Honda OEM rack is too small to be useful for my purposes, and the build quality of the unit that I received was very poor. I ordered the Kijima Rear Carrier from Webike in Japan, but it was on backorder for almost 3 months. I received it about 2 weeks before the making of this video, so it was long overdue to be installed!
The Kijima side supports that I installed previously match up perfectly with the Kijima rack. I have several sets of luggage that I can mix and match that will work very well with this rack system. Here are links to each of the products that I mention in the video:
