yeh they are something like £40-50.. Very rarely come up on ebay...
Ive carried loads on my bike (even a technics 1210 and on another occasion a hifi amp and 2x bookshelve speakers) and I dont have a rack.. I put stuff half on the back of the seat and strap it down with bungies...

Carried a DTR engine in my ruck sack whilst pillion on my mates RGV250 years ago, plus brought my DT-WR up from Dorset to Nottingham in the back of my old Civic VTi....
thats nothing... try my old mans triumph 750 bonne into the back of an austin metro. I kid you not.. fair enough it was hanging half out and rear seats where flat but none the less it got home in the back of a metro.
anyhow back on to my point you can carry alot on a dt without a rack

sump aka bash guard (as 2t dont have sumps) can be made from 5mm alu piece of cake.. rear rack is a diff kettle of fix but I bet it could be done with a few bits of alu..
like I said though.. secondhand racks (not the older ones) are rare as hens teeth.. I dont think ive ever seen on ebay in all the years Ive been trawling for dt/dtre/dtx parts
