What luggage rack do I need to fit a Honda CG 125?

[Justboughtabike]

Hi, 

 

Looking at buying a rack to attach a top box to my Honda CG125 and wondered if there was specific size/model I needed buy? Or are racks universal and fit for all motorbikes?

 

Any help would be great

What year and model CG have you got please ?

As as I can determine it should look like this in terms of the fixing points . The front two go under the nuts that hold the shocks on . The other two I'm not sure about . Because there at least a dozen Chinese copies of your bike , one would assume that there would be numerous copies of a rack . I've found a few but they are hidious looking contraptions aimed at the Third World marketplace . Anyway now that you have an idea what to look for , I wish you luck in your search . May I suggest that you join the CG FB page .

On later CG models there was a rear fairing with two bolts that lined up with the other two lugs on that rack. If you remove your seat and take a photo it would be helpful to see what fittings are there.

But this isn't a later CG model .

The other 2 fittings go where the indicators fit, then they bolt on to the rack

I know - but you said you weren't sure where other two lugs connected to on the rack shown. @billy sugger has it right - on that model it looks like they connect where the indicators go. On mine they connected to the bolts in the rear fairing. Which is why I suggested taking a photo with the seat off because it will show what will line up. That will make it easier to figure out which rack will fit.

The 2 I said are on fleabay will fit
