Hello, welcome etc. I'm sure you'll like it here - I've not been around that long, & I feel well & truly 'at home', thanks to all the good geezesses & geezers on here.

Welcome to the site Dave, nice choice of bike!
I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
Can't comment on the rack, but I think it looks much better with the Belly pan, (others have different views, obviously, we're a varied group on here"!)
Have a look at a few of the bikes on here -

Mine is the Skidmarx version and it is a good fit.
Slight concern though, as just looked on their site and they don't seem to show one anymore, so can't add a link. Will have a look around and see if I can find any more information.
Could still be worth contacting them to see if they still have one left, also there are a few people on here selling bits so my find one that way.

Don't mind Howard - he's one of our Silver Surfers .... a quick look on the Skidmarx site reveals:HowardQ wrote: Slight concern though, as just looked on their site and they don't seem to show one anymore, so can't add a link.

Howdy David, welcome in, bit early for a drinkie, but sod it I'll have a VRB, need something to get my heart started this morning.
Ventura do racks, quite popular here in the colonies. I don't like them personally 'coz they look crap on the bike, but when they're off the remaining brackertry is less obvious than most other makes.

I’ve a Ventura rack as shown above. Works very well. Mounts the luggage on the rear seat when travelling Solo or hanging off the back when two up. Possibly not the prettiest arrangement when in use but barely visible when not.
I'm sure you'll find the Falco a capable machine.
