If you are looking for a luggage rack, I could recommend ventura racks, they are a good system, once you put your brackets on, you can fit the tourer rack which has a large upright to hold a large bag or you can get the sport rack which is the same but with a smaller upright, or if you don't want the rack on all the time you can take it off an put on a grab rail. Once you have fitted the brackets the racks and grab rail are easily changed by undoing two bolts. I think mine cost $480 which is the touring rack with the Aero Delta bag

G'day Wynnyderpooh, sorry to take so long to get back with pics. The GS500 has a Ventura rack, I will include a couple pics of the brackets in separate posts. I will also put in a picture of my Boulevard. This rack I got from Bestem Powersports, is an American company, I found them on ebay.

Here is the Boulevard. Cruiser rack, no need to drill any holes, mounts to existing points on the bike. The Ventura rack is the same, all brackets and bolts are supplied and mount to existing points.

Thanks wordslinger, the Boulevard does have hes share of neglect from the previous owners. I didn't want to buy a pristine one for fear of damaging it. I had been away from bikes for about ten years.
