looks good Ray, i've been scouring for a rack i like too, not found one yet.
One observation on your new rack based on my experience last saturday - you may be aware of this already. I found that with my panniers on (and loaded, admittedly quite heavily) and with a drybag with some bits on the back of the seat, i could lift the front wheel off the ground with two fingers under the right hand handlebar, with the bike pivoting on the sidestand, 'twas a bit unnerving as i figured it would probably tip quite easily if i stood it on an uneven surface. Also when on the centrestand it rocked very easily like a seesaw. All i'm thinking is that your rack obviously puts more weight to the back of the bike, so i'd be careful how much weight you put on it - just in case.
