Re: [ST] rear rack



The extra brackets reinforce the subframe in an area where it wasn't 
really designed to carry a load.  They are quite aggravating to install, 
but I recommend it.  Are you really going to weigh your stuff/top box to 
ensure it is 11 pounds or less?  I'm not.

>bought a rear rack for the ST a couple weeks ago.  went to attach it today <since is was up to 50F here in central pa & daytona is just over a week away>. anyway, i removed the 4 bolts holding the grab rail, replaced the grab rail w/ the rack and re-inserted the 4 bolts.  tightened the bolts and replace the seat.  i then noticed in the bottom of the box a several page instruction manual and a plastic bag of brackets/bolts which appeared extraneous to the process.  did i miss something??  will i be operating an unsafe vehicle with my 5Kg of load on the rear rack??  plz help !!!
