Author Message   Jvv Posted on Tuesday, May 31, 2011 - 01:07 pm:        Hi......I am about to have S3 mounts installed on my S2. Are there any "weak" points that should be beefed up on them prior to installing them?? Thanks.........ride safe, Jack   Blks1l Posted on Tuesday, May 31, 2011 - 01:35 pm:        I haven't heard of any mount weakness, just the bags.   Xl1200r Posted on Tuesday, May 31, 2011 - 02:34 pm:        The parts that attach to your bike is just metal tubing - nothing weak. The plastic on the inner bags will crack eventually if not already. Some layers of fiberglass and changing the bumper on the lower rear to a 4th mounting point will prevent and repair any damage.   Essmjay Posted on Tuesday, May 31, 2011 - 03:32 pm:        Jack- I am running the s3 to s2 factory conversion rack and have had no issues after 2 years and thousands of miles. They do vibrate at idle like everything else.
