I'm in Ohio, USA. I'm looking for a tail rack and bag or hard luggage, for my 1990 FJ1200. The rack would be enough, as I can buy something like Givi to mount on it.

Check with RPM, they are a GIVI dealer. Not to mention they know how find the may things we need in the FJ world.
The glass is not half full, it was engineered with a 2X safety factor.

Unfortunately the Givi Wingrack and Wingrack 2 are no longer in production. The Wingrack can be easily found used on eBay. The FJ specific mount kit is another story.

Hepco & Becker still offer new racks and universal bags for the FJ. The Hepco & Becker frame and Junior bags are what I have mounted on Casper.

Here is the link to the US distributor

Thanks Fred. I just bought a wingrack with FJ mount on eBay. I will look at the bags you have. The pictures look like what I want.

The Hepco & Becker bags that I have will NOT work with the Givi Wingrack.
You will need to look for Givi or Kappa, Monokey bags. The E41 model saddlebags are the most desirable.

Here is an eBay link to a set. If you buy the set and don't need/want the top box, I will buy the top box from you.
