Hi folks. I just bought my '05 black Crossfire and love it. I have one problem... I ride road bikes all the time and I can't fit the bike in the back, even with both wheels off! My local Racks shop doesn't know of a rack that fits the Crossfire. Have any of you found a system to carry your bikes on the Crossfire?

I have the base model with a six speed. I have had the seats done in leather and installed K&N filters. I just ordered a Borla exhaust and Eibach Pro-Kit. Will the dealers install these or should I find a speed shop? Thanks in advance for any advice.

Hollywood Racks makes a bike rack for cars with spoilers (Model F2). It's a 3 position adjustable rack and works good on the XF. If you go to crossfirecommunity.net and look in my photo gallery, you will see a pic of it mounted on my XF.

 

At least two people on the forum have had bike racks on their x-fires, one a coupe, and one a roadster. The basic "Hollywood" rack is the one that works on coupes and the "Saris Bones" works on the roadster.
I went to the bike shop to buy the Saris Bones, but the guy in front of me in line was returning his because it ended up damaging his S2000- which made me think I probably don't want to use my car for this.

saris bones rack works great...you can adjust it to form around your spoiler without compromising security and snugness of the bike rack.

 

I had just about given up trying to find a rack that would fit on my roadster and then I saw this posting. Which "Bones" model will fit over the spoiler, the regular Bones or the Bones RS?

 

I answered my own question this weekend. Sort of. I can't speak for the RS model but I did purchase a Bones 2 model and can attest to the fact that it will fit over a raised spoiler on a n/a roadster. Awesome bike rack.
