FS: SW-MOTECH Alu-Rack Toprack for '08-'12 250r

I'm selling my Alu-Toprack, as seen at TwistedThrottle.com.

I'm selling a bunch of stuff on eBay, but want to give my Ninjette community first right of refusal, so I'll be listing it here FIRST for one week.
I'm asking $130 plus shipping costs (eBay will be $150 plus shipping).

According to the UPS shipping estimator, shipping should cost a little under $30.
Ready to ship package is: 11.4 lbs, L = 29.5", W = 14", H = 5.5"
Will finalize PayPal details over PM.

Sorry I don't have pictures, but I didn't think about taking any until after spending the last 45 min. making a custom sized box that will fit it - so it's all packed up, and ready to go!

Just checked your profile... it's a ways.

@headshrink Probably not much interest because Twisted Throttle is currently offering the Alu-Rack new in the box for 139.99, which includes shipping. I'd wait until it's no longer on sale through Twisted Throttle before posting it on eBay. I didn't want to burst your bubble, just don't want you to end up sacrificing it for some ridiculously low price on eBay either. I'd wait. Perhaps Twisted Throttle is discontinuing it, which may bring the price up on a used one. http://www.twistedthrottle.com/sw-mo...inja-250-08-13

Thanks for telling me about that... I wasn't aware.


EDIT: Is it over already? Perhaps an error they caught already? It comes up in my browser as $177.50.

EDIT 2: OK, I found it. It only comes up if you search for the rack directly, but using the 'shop by bike' feature only yields the regularly priced one.
Shipping is only offered on orders of $199. Perhaps an adapter base and tax will get you over that.

EDIT 3: What I find interesting is that the version list for sale shows a less than accurate regular price. To make it even more crazy, I had one tab open that showed yet a third price.... $188.xx, then refresh sent it back down to the sale price. What's going on over there?

EDIT 3 (SOLVED, sort of): Sorry to beat a dead horse, but I discovered a relevant difference by searching the different SKU numbers. The more expensive one includes an adapter plate specifically for Coocase. Twistedthrottle was not clear about this, as it looks like you have to buy it separately, which I did, but this also explains why I have an extra (forgot I had it).

If anyone is remotely interested send me a PM to work out details. Otherwise I'll wait for the dust to settle.

@headshrink After my post I met another guy on a 250. He asked about my rack, and is considering buying one. If I run into him again I'll direct him to you. He's also in Stockton, not far away.
