Motoracks luggage racks for WR250R - a review Part II

This is an update to my initial review of Moto-racks.com luggage racks for the WR250R.

Here are some additional installation picks, namely all the bolt locations with the stock passenger footpegs in place (my initial review did not feature the footpegs), and the top bracket bolt that goes through the subframe.


My overall impressions:

The racks are much lighter than what I expected them to be, yet a plenty strong. While there is some flex under force (which is a good thing when the bike takes a nap), the racks did not bend (change shape) with my limited testing. I moved the bike around using the racks as a grab bar, and they held up without any movement to alignment or angles.

These racks not only look good, but seem to be everything I was looking for.

Now it's time to get some luggage.
