[QUOTE="TooManyBikes, post: 1459314, member: 91287"] Acquired a set of MC Enterprise engine cages and luggage protectors. However, MC Enterprises closed their doors about 2019 and the seller did not provide the long rod (approx M10 x 75mm) and two D shaped spacers for the rear of the engine. Also, missing are the two bottom bolts for the luggage rack protectors that connects the protectors to the rear stay and muffler (approx M10 or M8 x 40) and the machined spacers that keep the luggage protectors out of the irregular surface of the rear muffler stay. Does anyone have some work around suggestions, short of using a BIG stack of thin walled washers or having the spacers custom made? Thanks!! Here is a photo of the proper bolt and spacer for the muffler connection [ATTACH type="full" width="480px"]5046[/ATTACH] Here is a photo of the stock muffler bolt configuration with a shorter bolt and no spacer. [ATTACH type="full" width="476px"]5048[/ATTACH] The missing bolt (and associated spacers) is a few inches above the brake pedal in this picture of someone else's bike. It has nuts on both ends of the rod, where the stock mounting is with a bolt and no spacers and the bolt head is on the LH side of the bike. [ATTACH type="full" width="474px"]5049[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
