I picked up this set of extras for my '06 and have found that I do not need them.

I wanted the rack since I used the factory luggage rack on my Honda Shadow all the time and thought that this one would be just as handy. Little did I know there isn't much you can't stuff in the FJR's side cases.
I also thought that my wife may like to have the back rest, however after a few rides with it she does not notice it behind her. My mother does use it when I take her but she does not ride with me nearly as much. So instead of letting this stuff sit around I will pass it on to someone that may be able to use it.
Everything is used and not in perfect condition but all is still very much functional.
A new Fastbag runs $295 (https://fastbagusa.com/) - best way to describe it is a giant, locking compression bag. Fits over the sleeve for the backrest and through bolts to the rack. The compression straps neatly wrap around the rack and stow in the lid. I stuffed a queen sized comforter to show the back expanded. I didn't tighten the straps much to compress it and there was still a lot of room left.
Very clean install and secure. (+$100 for color match from Garauld )
Garauld's color matched rack new $250 - very nice aluminum rack uses stock rack bolt holes, supports the Corbin backrest and is drilled to bolt the Fastbag in place.
I frequently set my helmet on the rack to while getting ready, it also is a great place to lock up a helmet using a short piece of cable. I just run it through the chinbar and the rack then under the passenger seat.
The Corbin backrest new $90
I am selling as a set since all three parts have been made or modified to suit this combination of accessories for $300+ shipping.
PM for additional, better quality images or questions.
