Bowfin Cruisers - Roof racks and more

[dogfishlake]

When do you think you will have the 40 series rack completed? Any idea on pricing?

I am waiting on two sets of side rails for the 40 to make absolutely sure we have it right and then they will go on the site for sale. I ran the crap (actually a friend did because I let him have my 40 so I could ride with my daughter) out of it on muddy rutted trails with the rtt on it to make sure it was nice and solid and silent. Very nice down the highway and great off road. I love it.

I do. I was starting on one for @bdyer12 , on his 45. Was going to be a rack for the roof and a set of large hoops or some sort of frame for the bed to extend the rack all the way back for gear and a rtt. It is sort of on hold only because of time here and his 45 has to wait for some other projects of his too. I want one for mine as well. Whenever that stupid "time tree" grows right next to my overdue "money tree", I'm all over it!

Just got mine mounted! Looks great and rock solid. You might want to get a tapered punch to help align the holes. The whole thing is engineered to tight specs. Not a lot of wiggle room. Assembly is fast, as is most 80/20 -based assemblies. The hard part was the mounting and aligning. That and 100 degree weather. It's on now and looks great! Thanks Bowfin! @dogfishlake

@dogfishlake these look great and very sturdy looking. Almost makes me want to go back to a hard top on my 40....!

I'm really happy with the 40 rack. I have agonized over it a ton. I honestly wasn't going to make one for it because I thought it would look wrong on that iconic white roof. It is still easy enough to see the roof with the rack on and it looks at home on there. It is a crazy bit of bend work to make the narrowing front work right but it does.

Yes they will be back for order by next week. I just don't like being too far behind. Just about caught up!

Pat's in Ouray for the SAS#3 which ended today. Was my first time meeting him in person he's a great guy.

I’ll second that opinion on Patrick! I love the rack on my 80, and will be buying a 40 rack ASAP.
