Hi guys - completely agree! I'm hoping to see the revised ES-compatible rack in our next shipment, but BUMOT has said they want to make sure it's fully tested before going into production and shipping. Part of the issue is the bike they were prototyping has taken it's rider on a long vacation in Europe...hopefully it will return soon and they can confirm fitment!
Fellow forum member S10EastTN was nice enough to ride up to NY (from Tennessee!) on his brand spankin' new '14 ES and we took a look at the Holan and BUMOT racks on his bike. The new rack should get around the footpeg bracket mount issue with ES spec'd bikes, but I guess I hadn't realized just how far that factory side panel extends outward and rearward. BUMOT has been testing fit and the toolbox will most likely be mounting on the opposite end of rack (closer to the front of the bike), which could prove problematic with ES bikes. I grabbed some pictures of S10EastTN's bike and sent them to BUMOT....we'll know more soon, but just want to update the ES owners that a toolbox may or may not be in the cards.
In the meantime, for any 2014 and earlier non-ES bikes, I have two systems left in stock, both in matte black, and one of each size (40L and 45L). If you have any questions or want to get your bike fitted out with luggage for an upcoming trip, we can ship out within 24 hours of your order.
Any questions, please let me know.
Thanks!
