Yep, they are absurd. I respect that some utilize them and, indeed, they are a necessity, but I'll be glad when the trend fades and the fan boys jump off that bandwagon.

Yeah after I priced them I went and looked in the Official roof rack thread and it blew my mind that so many people would spend that much, and not use it.

Yeah that's ludicrous. You mean people buy them just for the looks? Their entire existence is for function haha. I paid $50 for mine used. Usually the only thing vehicle specific are the feet, so scour craigslist for deals

Went riding the other day and I think my taint hurt for two days after that. And thats' with padded shorts.

I have a generic hatch trunk mount rack that I use for me, my wife and our daughters bikes.

I actually wish I had something big enough to just toss the bikes in, or a hitch mounted rack, much easier than lifting onto the roof.

Thats the fuel tank breather line. In order to get rid of it, I suppose you could cut it waaaay back where it starts (where the fuel tank is) and let it vent there.
