Hi Sean,
The guy who owns the gear would rather deal with the buyer directly as his stock varies from day to day and prices sometimes change depending on how many of an item he has, all sounds confusing I know.
Best bet if you like something is to pop him an email or use the contact form or if your in the UK just ring him, real nice guy who will sort whatever you need if he can.
We will be adding loads of second hand stuff shortly so keep an eye out over the next couple of weeks.

Hey Mauser, I was looking at your selection of used parts, and am kind of interested. How much for shipping to the states? Zip code 98823. Thanks

Hi Thumpmeister best bet is to send an email to paul@xr650r.co.uk tell him what your after and he will work a price out for you, tell him Simon sent you .
He normally replies within 48 hours.

Nice Mauser,

but pls tell Paul that there's 1 drawback, maybe a large one?
All this luggage stuff (pillion footrests included!) is based on the version with the subframe!
What I understand is that most Pigs don't have this, only the one's in EU and DU (Down Under), and he may want to consider making (copying?) a subframe & offer it, simply to allow anyone buying stuff from him?
Hey, my 2c's, he may want to use it

Hi Burp,
I mentioned your concerns to Paul...as he points out the racks only use 1 point on the subframe the other 4 points come from standard fixing points on all models, in reality you wouldn't need to use the middle fixing but it's there if you have the inner subframe .

Mauser,

my point was, and is - maybe I didn't say it too clear - that my bike, without any subframe-substance to speak of (no steel inner subframe, just an asymetrical flimsy alu frame), will not carry the weight of a pillion. Neither will the plastic fender-only carry the alu rack with a load on, and neither will it carry the weight of a laden full rack (which seems to connect unto the same 2 bolts as the alu rack).
Those 2 bolts, if I'm not mistaken, are those from the inner subframe, the steel "insert"? If so, then that is a hard part to get hold of for those 'without'.
Hence my suggestion. If Paul would offer such then he'd be able to sell to anyone, this instead of - currently! - only those who have a EU or Oz model. As an option of course, but still.
Hey, was just an idea?

(Edit: shout if you want me to send some pics, of the innards of my (empty!) rear fender)

Ahh I get what you mean now, the seat bolts are the only decent fixing as you say the entire rear aluminium subframe part is very weak to say the least, no need for pictures as I have the US version which is the same as yours....nothing at the rear .

Yip, that's what I mean. The full frame will 'hinge' around the seatbolts, and the alu-rack will simply want to go down - as will your girlfriend on the back.
Erm, let me rephrase that last bit
