JSL do one for tourers, not sure if its suitable for a lightweight, and I think Andrews have one for a lightweight.

Watch out for a craven one at jumbles. they are normally pretty cheap and an easy refurbishment.

I have the horribly-expensive one from Andrews (a birthday present from my wife 2 years ago) and it is well-made and a fairly-accurate fit. It's lasted very well indeed (no rust) and supports the world's largest Craven topbox very well.

Beware though of putting too much weight on the rack or in a top-box - it really does the handling in!

Oh Al..... you wasted your money there - you should've bought a cheap Chinese one.... that didn't fit very well, went rusty and broke when you put your top box on it - will you never learn ?
