Autocruise Starfire Scooter Rack Forums

Soapy1

We are considering adding a scooter rack to our Autocruise Starfire and wonder if anyone has experience of this or can recommend a supplier. We are particularly concerned about the weigh factor. Any information will be graterfully received.

Many thanks - looks complicated as we are 2 lady owners and both blonde!! Was wondering if someone with a Starfire may have the magic answer.

Hi Soapy 1

Don't know if this helps at all but 3 years ago I was looking to buy a
new Starfire at the York show & wanted to carry a scooter like you. I enquired at Richard Baldwins stand and the salesman said no problem we send them out to a specialist fitting workshop. Very Happy

I then went round to Brownhills and asked the same question and was told by no less a person than John Cockburn of Autocruise that it was a no no due to the length of rear overhang and weight of scooter and rack.

I loved the compact size and layout of the Starfire but it meant I had to look around for something else. Sad

Thanks Mick that's very helpful. I think we will hold fire on this and stick to pedal bicylces instead. Sad
