My home made "Basket" rack

[fishin4]

So here's my home built basket rack. I've been using it for a while and have been impressed however I have now begun building a new rack which will better suit my needs.(I will put up pics when it is done).

you made that yourself? thats pretty cool!

notice any crazy wind noise? or have you thought of putting the front fairing piece at an angle?

 

[2000runr]

cool as hell. you may need a wind deflector for it as the extra drag will hurt

 

[fishin4]

Yeah, The new one will have an angle to the front, as for wind noise not to bad after I drilled the three holes. Also as for drag, well a tent and stroller, porta crib, camping chairs, shovel and fishin stuff! not worried about it, LOL. wait untill the new one is done, I may just have to patent some of its features! not to brag.
Tight lines!

how long did it take to make?

 

[fishin4]

Took about 2hrs to cut and drill and bolt and size etc then paint, paint, repaint scratched areas after removal for mods.

looks really good....can't wait to see the 2.0 version

the only thing i would suggest is to put the front deflector at a pretty decent angle...somewhere under 45*

and maybe put some mounting tabs on the back and sides to mount lights on it? that's what I did with my coleman rack
