Default Need help with luggage rack

I need to purchase a quick release luggage rack for my 13 street glide, I have the 4 point docking hardware installed. Every HD one I see in the catalog or on their site says I have to relocate the antenna..does anybody know of a luggage rack that does not require the antenna to be moved ? I don't need a real big one...
thanks, Dave

I would think the antenna would bend easy enough that you could add a luggage rack from time to time...

Well, you don't "have too".
But the antenna will come into contact with the luggage rack and whatever you strap onto it.

Yep, it will.

I added the antenna relocation kit on my Street Glide since I was adding a tour pack.

As RollaMo said, you don't have to. I ran a chrome stealth rack for a while before I also went with the tour pac. Now the rack is collecting dust.

I am not sure if the 13s antenna is located differently then the 14s, but I use the stealth rack and I did not need to relocate my antenna. I hope that helps.
