Default Busted Tour Pack Mount Rail
I found the chirp I'ved been hearing, leaving work yesterday when I was opening the tour pack to ****** my helmet out the tour pack moved about an inch, I said WTF then looked under the tour pack and said WTF again, the tour pack mount rail was broken all the way through at both mounting fastners in the top of the mount rail. The 2 license plate bracket bolts were holding it on. My bike is a 00EGC.
