    Did Yamaha ever offer a rear package shelf for the xj550? Not sure if that's the correct name for it.

    After I got straightened out on the proper name, I found one that is labeled Yamaha NOS that appears to be black anodized aluminum. That must be the one for the Seca. It also goes for almost $100 plus shipping, so it's a bit out of my price range.

    Nice rack, Fitz! Dave, why am I disturbed that you keep pics of Fitz's rack on hand? Do you have pictures of my rack?
