[QUOTE="SkooterG, post: 941083, member: 118"] Hey Nancy! As noted above, the 'tails' of FJRs should be identical. Also, if the grabrail is removed, you need to be very careful mounting anything on the rear as there have been several cracked/broken rear subframes from overloading. If the grabrail or a Givi mounting rack is on the bike, it gives the rear area several mounting locations to absorb the weight. Without either of those, all weight is being transferred to just the very rear of the subrame which not strong at all. [/QUOTE]
