I'd like to complain this is impacting my EOM plans...... Dean who now owns my '14 FJR, has overloaded the rear end one too many times, and the rear subframe is broken. This is not your typical FJR subframe break at the tail, and I haven't seen one like this..... It has a Givi 357 rack, which saved the very rear, but the frame broke further forward. In fact where the rack mounts. To fix it, need to weld the threaded bosses back on, then the Givi rack can be used as a jig to hold everything together, weld up and reinforce....
Welder people are swamped, and I can't get anyone to do it (yet), need it done by Monday, or that bike isn't going to depart for EOM on time (Wednesday). The sorta good news is same subframe used since 2006, so I am getting expedited shipping quoted for one from Florida to NY, where I can go pick it up Monday.... we'll see. Wish me luck.
