Does anyone know of a UK supplier for the Meteor solo expedition rack, you know the one that replaces the pillion seat ?

If there are none what was your experience like buying direct from India? Customs? VAT? How long did you wait? Etc.

Thanks for looking.

Hi Ivy I've attached a photo of mine I fitted recently, ordered from India on ebay, delivered Fedex within a week

[Oscar]

And another, I also swapped to the touring seat, really pleased with mine

[Oscar]

Sorry Ivy, previous photo wasn't mine 😣, hopefully correct photo now loaded

Just wondered if my name is Oscar

Thanks Oscar, do you have a link to the buyer you used. There are several on ebay but I'm nervous of buying from abroad.

I wonder if the seat and rack would fit on a Hunter. It looks very nice

I’ve bought a number of items for my classic from India recently, my rock and roll gear lever, much better now my Brain’s shifted over, and my rear rack both arrived within a week, neither were stopped for taxes etc. I used Royal Rider on eBay. So far no issues and outstanding service, with a massive saving.

Thanks Curious, I will have to start browsing ebay.

Hope the link works Ivy

I wonder if the seat and rack would fit on a Hunter.

Classic and Meteor have a different backframe, so seats and racks are not interchangeable on both. AFAIK Hunter has a completely different frame.

My rack arrived from India today. 6 days, that's fast delivery.

Fitted along with my touring seat.

Thanks to all for posting the links and giving me the confidence to buy direct from India.

Ivy,

That really looks nice, a very nice setup indeed! It came out better than I would have anticipated. Enjoy!...
