Hi all! Looking into the Prospeed Roof Rack, Front Runner Slimline, or Xtrusion Overland.

can anybody who has the three mentioned let me know what you like/dislike about it? Having trouble deciding which one.

What about overland ruff rax?

I have one for my r1s and it is the best option but more expensive but well worth it for quality and fit

I personally have the Overland Ruff Rax myself but I really like the price and profile of the Prospeed rack. Only thing I would want to see is what their mounting solution looks like.

Thanks for the opinions gents! I’ll definitely look into the ruffrax as well. For those of you that have any of these options, how has your efficiency been? And do you notice a significant noise increase?

No noticeable wind noise and range hit with overland ruff rax unless a bunch of gear is mounted on top. Then slight bit of noise and range hit.

I've ordered the prospeed rack. I'll do a review on here once I get it in. I ordered it the day they listed it for sale.

You probably won't get many reviews on others, as most haven't been out long enough (aside from the overland ruff rax) for people to have them and review them.
