The last time I spoke with the good folks at Genuine Scooter (about a month ago), they indicated that accessories (including, I assume, a rack) would be coming out real soon. It might be time to check with them again and see if they will perhaps make the Christmas shopping season...

I have the same experience...I keep seeing pictures and photos of the Blur with a nice back rack, but no one carries them yet!

Yep, I got the same message from my dealer - rack should be available real ... soon ... now (I hope), along with a windshield. Hope they make it in time for winter riding.

(addition) Just got word - should be shipping within 3 weeks.

I was at my dealer this weekend, the rack and windshield are still on back order. Apparently they should be available in about 3 weeks for last two months :P

I did see some top cases for the Buddy that look similar the one in the Blur brochure - but in nicer colors. The black one would look great on the blur with the gloss black matching the top of the steering column and faceplate up front.

Hmm.. maybe the new, improved Buddy topcases are coming in... but there's nothing on Genuine about them, of course.

Are the racks there the same as these?

Mine is fixed with one but be sure that it comes with an extra screw plate for the center screw of the pillion handle so that its more secure for "heavy" loads :)

Just got a call from my dealer Scoot Around Town with the news that the blur racks are now shipping. I've had mine on back order since November.

Woot!
