The luggage rack will mount securely, but sliding rack movement will remain until the bumpstops are available. AltRider designed this rack compatible with BMW’s problematic sliding rack system. While the factory Vario setup may look sleek, it causes weight shifts and locks you into a single luggage ecosystem. This rack eliminates both issues with a fixed-position design and universal mounting compatibility, opening the door to every major luggage brand. Engineered with precision, it features elastic bumpers for quick OEM-to-AltRider transitions, chamfered edges to protect straps, and shouldered standoffs that maintain mounting integrity in punishing heat. Finished in tactical black anodized aluminum with a textured powder coat, it delivers both rugged durability and aggressive styling that matches the spirit of true adventure riding.
