I have a 2010 Road Glide and have ordered a Danny Gray "Big Seat Solo" to go on it. Have this seat on my 03' Fat Boy and like it alot, but the mounts are very different.

Question: Has anyone matched a Danny Gray "Big Seat" or a HD "Brawler" with a Motherwell Solo Luggage Rack on a 2009 - 2011 touring bike?

I contacted Motherwell and their answer was not clear, given that they make a rack for a Corbin seat (no rear thumbscrew on the Corbin seat); and a different rack for (aparently) all others, that is, those with a rear retaining thumbscrew for the seat.

My question is whether there was a problem with relationship between the fender studs that the rack mounts to, and the thumbscrew that the seat mounts to? Are these two set-ups compatable?

 

I contacted motherwell several years ago, and probably got the same answers you got. I put the motherwell rack for a corbin solo, on an 06 street glide with a DG big seat, and looking at my 09, with the same big seat, I don't see a problem. I'm pretty sure it will work with the big seat, but don't believe it will work with the brawler.
