It's a while since I fitted up any low rider racks, back in the 80's they bolted on to the rack eye on the fork end and also half way up the fork blades (either with a plasticised u-clamp or boltsd on [u]both[/u] sides of the blade)

It seems current forks may use just one upper mount - is this the case? And if so will that work with a fork that has eyelets on the [u]inside[/u] of the blades like these?

TIA

Seriously though are those rack mounts or mudguard eyelets?

Ah well I phone them up and the mounts are not made for racks ๐Ÿ™

Can anyone can confirm whether a single boss on the blade and one at the fork end is all I need for a low-rider?
