I guess it depends on your local market, but that seems high for an '81. Then again, if it's really daily-rider ready then it may not be all that bad. You could spend $1,500 on one and you may end up putting just as much into getting it to the point that this bike is in. I'd just really look at...

See the signature - my first bike. After getting a new battery & new tyres, I mostly just adjusted and cleaned everything.

Got it. Unless Gary has something, I'll buy the rack I linked in the first post and the rack you linked so I can combine into one that will work.

Thanks for the help. Gary, if you find anything that would fit and be functional to carry a load (even if it is ugly as all hell), I'll probably take it. This is purely for functional use and not meant to stay on the bike as a good-looking, stock-like accessory. XJ, let me know if you see...

PM sent to G. Thanks for the help, fellas.

Thanks for replying. The one you have pictured looks absolutely perfect! That is exactly what I was looking for. I understand that the end mounts to the acorn nut, but I'm not seeing where else it attaches. I'm sure if I had it in hand I could figure it out. Is this the same rack...

Anyone have any idea if a luggage rack from a 1981 Special (see picture) will fit on my 1982 Heritage Special? Related, are there any other XS luggage racks that are compatible with a 1982 Heritage Special? The usual suspects (eBay) aren't coming up with anything specific to my bike. What...

Thanks, but those are the upper / top side covers. I'm looking for the lower side covers. A left one or set of both sides.

I'm looking for one of the plastic, side covers used on Heritage Specials that cover the lower, left side. I know they're really hard to come by, but I figured I'd ask. I don't have too much to trade, but I'm sure cash will do just fine. I actually found one last year from a friendly forum...

Fair enough, I guess I had that coming. This being a forum for a specific motorcycle - yes, the right side on my front wheel. Osteodern, I didn't even think of the speedometer. I'm leaning towards that - I'll disconnect it and see if it stops.

I have a clicking sound coming from what appears to be the front, right wheel. Any ideas? Wheel bearing maybe? It probably starts around 25 miles per hour or higher. It doesn't seem to change pitch / loudness due to higher / lower RPMs. Nor does speed seem to really make it "worse". Though...
