Ntolerance Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Anyone have a Ventura rack mounted on an 01 5th gen ? According to the website their rackfits 98-00. Looking to buy one used off the net and the seller says fits 98-00 only. Can't imagine 01 is different ??? Mounting arm part number is H097/B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer mello dude Posted July 11, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted July 11, 2017 I cant see why the rack wouldnt fit an '01. It mounts to the rear hold handle bosses. - - I have one. - You could check the fische on Partzilla and compare. http://www.partzilla.com/parts/search/Honda/Motorcycle/parts.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Terry Posted July 11, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted July 11, 2017 Ventura racks are designed and built right here in New Zealand. Every bike I ever owned in the last 35 years has had one fitted at some point! I suspect there may be more than one design for the 5G, the one I have installs to the subframe from below the cowl, but I have seen them attaching to the frankenbolt and grab handles too. As Mello suggests, all 5G's use the same chassis and body parts so in my mind they will all be the same when it comes to a rack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer KevCarver Posted July 11, 2017 Member Contributer Share Posted July 11, 2017 Sometimes you see it listed as 98-02 (often on eBay bike breakers), sometimes 98-00, like my service manual. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not quite the best "action" shot but my best to show the design. I still use this rack with my hard bag setup. With Hard Bags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
