Title: Givi Pannier Rails-fitting question
Post by: R0B on September 04, 2010, 10:54:36 PM
Well I fitted my new (old) pannier rails today. The right hand rail clears the exhaust by an inch or so, but the left handed one is touching the Triumph badge on the heat shield. It doesn't look to be bent. Is this normal, or do I have a problem?. I'll try and post up a picture tomorrow.

Thanks

Rob

if the exhaust cans are off side to side it will happen try loosening the offending exhaust and see if you can twist it to give some clearance ........

Thanks for the advice Mustang. I loosened everything off last night and gained about 1mm :-(..............so I guess that the only solution would be to cut and weld it, or accept a bit of cosmetic damage to the cover?. I'm looking for a wing rack to modify to fit my other tiger, so may be able to build in a little more tolerance on the other bike.
