I was wondering if anyone installed rear rack such a this:

Right now, I always carry my backpack with me but I wish I had more storage, for extra clothes, towing rope, food etc. don't tell me to get different atv :birds:

This rear rack doesn't seem too good, it looks like it's gonna break after few trips. I was thinking about installing extra bag behind me but I have now idea how to do it? Have anyone tried to do it?

If you have any pictures or ways to do it I would really appreciate it

I haven't tried one but you might consider PRM-ATV's Rack. I have their grab bar and heel guards and like them quite a bit. Those items were well constructed and a helpful company and were welded together extremely well.

Not sure how you feel about the looks but that's pretty much personal preference.

EDIT: As an added note the aluminum they use is quite light weight so I bet that thing weighs next to nothing. The more I look at the rear rack the more I like the design too because it would be really easy to strap stuff down using bungee cords or tie-down strap

There's also something like this if you hadn't thought of it http://tinyurl.com/gastankbag

Made a tinyurl cause it was an ebay auction. There are many out there other than that one, just an example

PRM is the only way to go for a cargo rack,they have 3 or 4 different setups for the 700xx

REAR RACKS KILL PEOPLE I saw it happen Just my opinon.

check out this guys setup, been trying to figure it out...

2 pieces of "l" shaped coming straight out from the rear and using existing bolts...then put a flat piece of 4mm plastic or you could use alloy for a floor..strong enough to carry 2ltr of fuel or waterproofs etc...didnt want the brake light to be obscured

Thank You for all replies. I kind of like that PRM-ATV's Rack. Does anyone have a picture of it installed on their atv?

Also, if I get it, I would need some heavy duty, waterproof duffle bag or case. Do you know any good stuff? I'm pretty sure rack and bag will get dirty from driving right away.

I have the rack you first asked about. The previous owner installed it. I have used it alot it is really handy. I have hauled coolers, gas, water, tools and when I have had the occassional passenger in works as a great lower back rest so they don't slide off the back.
The only complaint I have is the two edges of the rack vibrate against the plastics sometimes and have made a wear mark on the plastics but isn't noticeable. Other than that I really like it and so do my buddies who can't carry anything when we ride.

I have this same rack and have had the same experience, I also have to tighten the bolts every once and awhile.

Also the hole in the center of the rack makes a great place to put a little canvas cooler, I'll take pictures next time i ride which unfortunately will probably not be until next weekend.

I like this, lower center of gravity as well, i hate stuff hanging way off the rear like most racks.

Thanks for the close up

I also like the matlock edition storage rack. Still don't know where to get a water proof bag from.

Good point. When I carried a "standard" smaller gas can(1 gallon can) on the rack for two days it fit perfectly in the center like the rack was made for it.
