First does anyone know exact weight of the stock steel racks that hold the BUELL hard bags?
I may want to get some aluminum racks made "because I can".

I'm not too worried about strength --> no plan to catch them on trees or anything that side of wrecking
Anyone know a person who makes ALUMINUM racks for the Buell hard bags?

If there is someone i'd like to hear prices.
thanks

The racks are just tube steel. The bags weight a lot more than the racks do. I wouldn't bother with the aluminum racks to save weight but that just me. Now, if you do get aluminum racks, have them anodized. That would look cool!
