While trying to have a buddy lift the rear of the bike while on it's centerstand so I could pull out the tire (to have it replaced), we broke off the support bracket. I can't seem to locate a replacement and wondered if anyone had any ideas. I may have to try to have someone heli-arch weld it or maybe try something else.
I may have to find another trunk w/backrest pad and just remove the OEM backrest. A new trunk should mount securely to the existing flat luggage rack without needing the OEM backrest still mounted, I think. Well, after a second look at the mounting area it appears that the broken section is still needed to secure the flat luggage rack also!
I've included a picture and I've added the broken section. Any help or advice (on the fix, or new trunk) would be greatly appreciated!
