Well, the engineers put the bracket in there for a reason. As mine normally 
holds more than the maximum load, I want all the strength and support I can 
get.

The best way to address this is to perform the mod as addressed in the FAQ 
page at

http://www.triumphnet.com/st/faq/luggage/index.html

If you mount the two bolts at the back from the underside, your can remove 
the rack in a matter of minutes without having to play with any of the 
strengthening brackets. This is also a big time saver for those times when 
you need to remove the rear fairing.
