Re: Top rack installation

[KEGLER916@xxxxxxx]

Hello,
   Although I did get mine on the bike, I'm considering removing it. My 
latest problem is that the seat is a pain to take off and remove due to the 
cable binding. Sure I can fix the problem by getting out the Dremel and 
removing more material but should I? The quality of Triumph and for the most 
part their entire accessory line is first class. I think I just got a poorly 
made top rack. Surely most owners couldn't have had the installation problems 
I've experienced.

 I put on a top rack as part of putting on the top box.  I don't know if 
there is a
 different top rack for the top box or not.  In any case, mine was tedious 
(due to
 lots of nuts, bolts, and brackets) but everything fit ok.  However, since 
the top
 box is rated for 100 lbs I suspect the rack or the extent of its mounting 
must
 vary.  Perhaps not though, given your comments on the number of brackets...  
:-)
