Just installed the x-frames on a 2018 base model Africa Twin (not ATAS). Just wanted to highlight no instructions exist for this. The process is completely different from the ATAS and the 2016-17 models. If you guys haven't done it on a 2018 base model yet, feel free to reach out and I'll run through the differences with you. The rear rack and fender have been redesigned compared to the 2016-17 models.

dalediese I truly appreciate your comment and your offer on helping us out but we have video installation guide for 2018-2019 standard model: kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5XYf4efeM-feJY I’m sorry you’ve missed.

I'm in the process of installing these on a 2017 AT. The parts used under the seat in the video appear to be different than the parts I received. I received all the parts shown in the written instructions on the OM website. I'm at a loss as to where the large washer and M8 lock nuts come from.

Thanks for your comment. It’d be helpful if you sent us a photo of the brackets that you received. We can advise immediately after. info at outbackmotortek dot com

How wide are these racks for the 2017 AT. How much do they weigh?

Hello. Can I install givi Trekker Outback on this carrier? This sentence used Google translation. I'm sorry if I made a mistake in the grammar. From Japan.

How much clearance is between rack and chain guard? Does a Rotopax fit on the inside of the rack?

[@Outbackmotortek]

Michael Pfister yes, a 1 gallon Rotopax fuel can fit on the inside

@@Outbackmotortek Thanks for the information. Looks like a well-tought-out rack 👍

@@Outbackmotortek Can a Camel tank fit? I'd like to switch to your racks but I have a camel tank that I'd like to keep. Can do some of the custom mounting work. How far out does the rack sit? How far back and down does the bottom cross brace live?

This video is 20 minutes long and never once shows the rack from the exhaust side. I want to see what kind of clearance there is around the muffler how wide it is and how far it sticks out on one side versus the other.
