    Hi, no, that basket was sold a long time ago.
    I now have the stock rack with a Rage basket.

    Do you still have the fairing in place? If not, is he suggesting you would need to elevate the crossbars or just the forward part of the basket?

    No, that fairing is not being used. (Wow... I just realized I'm WAY behind in updating the forum on my mods! LOL)
    I'll have to do an update thread.

    Soo... I just picked up the VX!
    The sunroof and workmanship are phenomenal!!!
    I am so happy!
    Now I see what Riff Raff and others meant!

    The tech did take pics during the install. I'll post those, plus some of my own soon. I'm at a Dr's appointment right now.
    Actually, I think I'll make my own thread for it, with a link to it on this one. I hope I didn't thread jack this one too bad...

    In most non-popup sunroofs the headliner has to be lowered some to allow the glass to slide inside the roof.
