Kolpin Collapsible Flat Basket

Order one on line [...] Had it installed on a 2010 Yamaha 400 Grizzly, in about 45 minutes. Mounting hardward is aqdequate and doing a good job so far, but I will eventually replace with heavier duty stainless hardware, just to make sure that years from now there are no problems. I have carried 200+ pounds of corn, 2 deer at a time, and chainsaws and other equipment on this rack and it has carreid them all with ease. I would buy another one tomorrow. Only negative is, the paint is starting to flake off.

I attached this rack on top of the rear rack of a Yamaha Grizzly 700. It works perfectly for what I wanted, extended space. I carry everything from deer to firewood to tool boxes. The stock rack on a Grizz is very small with large openings that everything falls through. The best feature of this rack is the side bars and perforated side/back panel which provides infinte places to attach bungie cords when when securing your load. The "U" shape prevents the rack from encroaching upon my seat and the large side bars provide an excellent hand-hold when riding double. The metal mesh material used for a floor does not allow smaller items to fall through.

The only con is the included mounting hardware. Cheap hold downs are not suffcient. I threw those away and drilled holes through the side bars directly into the stock rack and used stainless bolts and nuts.

Pros-
Size/shape
Mesh floor
Tie down slots everywhere
Non-boxy look like others have

Cons-
Mounting hardware

I recently bought one of these for my ATV. I mounted it on my rear rack and then drove it a couple of miles. I then rinsed off the dust & parked it in the garage. The next day I walked out & found rust coming from virtually every seem on it. What good is an ATV rack you can't get wet? A very poorly made product!
