Ventura rack ST1100 installation - advice needed
« on: January 24, 2015, 10:09:11 AM »
I am looking for some help with installing the L-brackets of a Ventura rack on my ST1100.  It came in a bag of parts when I purchased the bike, but there were no instructions.  Any advice on how to order the spacers, washers & bolts would be appreciated.  Thanks :)

My advice would be to send an e.mail to Ventura via their web site   http://www.ventura-bike.com/default.aspx   or Kenma  http://www.kenma.com.au/   and ask for a set of instructions.   :thumb

I ordered mine though Sydney city Motorcycles e-mail them ( mailouts@sydneycitymower) and they may help , mine came with all the parts no instructions , had to use the original bolts to bolt it to the rear of the bike , just leave all the bolts loose and tighten them when it's all assembled , mine was a tight fit.

Dold Industries finally came through with a PDF of the instructions.  I've uploaded it for the benefit of the forum.
