Honda versus Kijima rack

[Houtman_imp]

Today I took the Kijima rack of and put the Honda OEM rack on.It was easy enough to put the Honda rack on but took a little longer than putting the Kijima rack on as that one use the original bungee bolts.With the Honda rack it is easier if you cut the short leg of a 6 mm allan wrench of to about half an inch to clear the indicator lights.Also a 12 mm 10 or 15 degree ofsett box wrench makes it a lot easier to start the rear nuts,the wrench will keep the nut in place and you can start the allan bolt by hand and than tighten with the wrench and keep it from turning with the short ,cut down allan wrench.It took me about 30 minutes to install it,a little longer than the Kijima rack.I will be selling the Kijima rack for in the for sale section .
