So far no issues. I do not overload the trunk, at most 10lbs. My wife hasn't been riding with me lately but the kids have but that is only another 60lbs. However the ventura does a great job at redistribution of the weight. With their bracket the bouncing down the road doesn't stress the subframe even with the side panniers on. All in all very happy so far and again, zero issues.
Yeah I don’t plan on putting weight in it with a passenger more of backrest rest does it seem fine when the wife was riding with you or she wasn’t using it as a backrest ?
@higgy3273 oh yea, she said it works good, not like the GoldWing but better than having nothing. She leaned back on it a good bit and had no issue, but she only rode with it twice since I've put it on.
Yeah sounds like it will be perfect. Thanks for all the help look forward to watching more of your install videos. I have sliders, heated grips, bags, phone mount, and usb plug on order. Anything else you recommend?
How is the trunk holding up with bags on?
