Eyup, I would be interested to know if any of you fine people have fitted the Ventura luggage system to your Tracer, and if so have you had any fitment issues ? I took delivery of my sparkly (well, as sparkly as satin-finish black gets…….) new Ventura “L” brackets and offered them up to the Tracer to find they simply do not fit ! They are deffo the correct ones for the bike, but the holes do not quite line up with the Tracer grab handle holes into which they are supposed to be bolted ! Drilling the “L” bracket holes out (by around an extra 2mm dia each) would just about sort the problem, but there would then be very little “meat” left on the “L” brackets mounting tabs, so I am currently waiting for a reply from Motohaus (Ventura UK importers), who have asked for photos, etc and a covering email so they can investigate further.
The least I expect when I pay £104 for two bits of bent mild-steel tube with a couple of brackets welded on with holes in them is that they actually fit the bloomin' bike !!! Good job my Spanish holiday is a few weeks away and not this weekend or I'd be scuppered !!!!
Cheers, Fletch
