^how so? I saw some other threads about this, try searching. Not sure if they ever found a specific rack, I think someone might have used one for a Mazda or something. I'm also interested in a rack system but for surf/snowboards, I'll let you know if I come across anything.

wait, do you mean like a roof rack? Because we have one that goes onto your trunk and has adjustable straps. I might have misunderstood the question

What type do you use for the trunk mount? I have an 03 evo and need to find one that will work.

^^ The Yakima rack looks really good. I'm kind of annoyed that Thule still has no Evo X fitment, so it looks like I'll be getting the Yakima. That thread you posted on SoCalEvo is killer, nice work!

no probs, glad to help. For what its worth, I took my X from Los Angeles to San Jose over the holidays roundtrip (about 400 miles) with two bikes on my Yakima... at one point, I forgot I had the bikes and was going around 90mph for a good distance.... glad to say the rack didn't even flinch! (My mileage was AWFUL However)

I've never had problems with my IX with Yakima stuff... and glad to report the X has the same results!
