You do have sidecase racks on the bike, right? (he says, knowing full well he's opening the "don't run a top case without sidecase racks" can of worms yet again....) But yes, the crosspiece is a vital part. I can understand your confusion! |

Thanks Slowride. Somebody had to do it. It takes some time and effort to take all those photos and post them. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GcCNcgoyG_0 |

You can just use the trunk. What I've heard is that you can't just install side bag brackets without the trunk bracket being installed also. The side brackets strength and integrity rely on ALL brackets being installed. Whether you want to use just the side bags, just the trunk, or all three is not an issue. |

Oh I have been running with out the trunk bracket just side bag brackets and have had my Side cases more then full I even mounted an MTB on one side for a 2k road trip. I have riden a total 25k almost always with side bags and no problems. The guy is saps to be sending me the bracket so I guess that will bring an end to my endurance test |

If what I am told is correct, these were either sold as a 2 piece set with just the side bags, or a 3 piece set with 3 cases. You should be able to run with just the top case, just leave all the brackets on the bike. |
