KSpeed CT73 rear rack with a pannier rack

[cornishrooster]

Bought the diabolus seat and rear seat upgrade from ebay and waiting for that to come in. I need to order the ct73 kspeed rack but I'm curious if anyone has used it with a pannier/saddlebag rack? https://k-speed.com/en-us/collections/ct125-parts/products/k-speed-ct73 If so which pannier rack did you use? I like the Rhinowalk 15L bag from amazon but the rack pictured in the ad isn't available anywhere that I can see. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0CQ4QHS8J/ref=ewc_pr_img_2?smid=A38FJRRSE51C0I&th=1 I'm not a fan of the kemimoto stamped metal racks that are everywhere on amazon, I suppose if it's hidden then it doesn't really matter. Curious what people are using and what they've tried and had issues with.
Cheers
Mikey

I was able to find that pannier/saddlebag rack they have pictured, but it's for the Cross Cub 110 (a variant of the Super Cub 110), so it may not fit the CT125 or that K-Speed rear carrier. The shock mount spacing and rear carrier bottom height would likely be determining factors based on how it attaches. Keep in mind the CT's exhaust also mounts to an upper shock mount so there could also be a lack of space there.

I haven't visually compared it against the CT, but there's an install video that would give you a better picture of that side rack setup.

Awesome. This is a start at least, thanks! The az page for the bag says that it works with most racks but I don't see how it would work with any of the ones that I've seen.

Edit. It at $68 and free shipping I decided to chance it. I'm a handy guy I'm sure I can mod it to make it fit . Cheers

Well the rhinowalk rack that dmonkey linked is actually working great. The bag itself is sturdy and wellmade, as is the rack. I love the look of this setup but I'm definitely not a fan of these Diabolus seats, the stock seat is waaaay better to me. I realized the issue with the aftermarket seat is that little lip in the back, it keeps me from being able to sit back further. I'm going to return these and deal with stock or try a corbin.

Thinking of going this route, was this rack plug and play?
The pictures you posted are very nice. Was that diagonal metal piece included or did you add that?
Thanks =)

Hey hey sorry for the late replay. The diagonal bars were just prefabbed metal pieces I got off amazon. Got a kit with black bolts and nuts off amazon as well. It's held up really well, no issues at all.
