How to rectify brooken bracket mount?

[Hazmat_83]

Hi guys,

 

I'm riding a Spec 2 with a Givi rack and box. As you all noe, the rack is mounted at two points-one is screwed onto the suspension screw and another is screwed onto the body at the area of the side tail. My left side mount at the body is loose, and I suspect it could be a broken bracket mount. As a result the box is shaky during riding. I only noe 2 possible options which are:

 

1. Do welding

 

2. Purchase a bracket holder from Chiap Lee and get it fixed at a bikeshop. This option was adviced by Racewerks when I asked them for their opinion just now.

 

The racewerkz guy said that many super4's experience this type of problem. Which one is the better option? Dun mind pls tell me the price and location? Thks for your help!

Give chiap lee a call and find out the price. If not much then better than welding, which will always be a weak joint.

but welded joints will nv be as strong as the original bro. so better not put too heavy things on it..

Yeah got option 2 done @ Chiap Lee for $45 inclusive of installation. Dunno whether Regina/LAB sells the exact same thing cheaper but I just wanted to get it over and done with... no time to scout around. Thanks for your help guys!
