Himmy looks great with the new frames and indicator relocate fitted.

Thank you OMR! Just rec'd my rails today...with no instructions lol. Thanks to your vid I made it happen. Cheers!

I watched on my TV. Picked up my phone to comment. What a great job you’ve done on this video!

Despite the need to finaggle the rack to fit, once they are on there it feels super solid. Enjoyed watching this video. I also relocated the tail light to the rear metal bracket that also holds the turn signals. (Not mandatory but if you install a givi top box with metal givi plate the supplied bracket does not fit mine and your version tail light). With saddle bags and a top box you might find the tail light is a little obstructed at least in my opinion. Just ordered the brightest aftermarket LED rear tail light and drilled two holes in the rear metal bracket and spliced the wires to the old tail light connector (not the bike wiring) and plugged it in.

Thank you for this video! I'm not as handy as I'd like to be, and I've had a hell of a time getting the mounts lined up properly, but in a few more hours I should have this setup ready to go thanks to you (and not the written instructions). Cheers brother!

I installed my pannier rack yesterday. Was really easy with the help of your video. Even the red Loctite was no problem. :-)

[mypaldave]

It took me several hours and many clamps to get every thing lined up and bolted even with your great tips.
Thank for the video I referenced it frequently during my installation!

Keep'em coming, please! Love the tinkering videos.
Noticed when we installed the pannier racks on my Himalayan there was no way to get everything on dead straight so I ended up with a visible gap on the lower bolt on the right side of the bike. Had to add washers to get a tight fit. Looks fine now.

Great video - thank you! I'll use it as reference for install on my 2023 RE Himalayan

The “extra” bracket on the table, not used, is the taillight extension bracket along with the rubber frame vibration pad.

Great video. I watched a couple times before I did my install. One thing that went wrong was the green right turn signal extetension cable was bad so I just wired it w/o the extension and it was still long enough. It just goes up in the fender a little closer but it works. Thanks for the build series! Very helpful!

[OkieBobby]

Great tutorial! I'm about to put the same rack on a Scram 411. Thanks for the leg up!

[bushcrafty]

Thanks mate. That made installation super easy! Weirdly the hardest part for me was getting the bolts through the wheel arch back up into under the top rack!

Great video and tutorial. I’m 69 years now and I have ridden bikes since I was 10 years old. Now I’m retired on the pension and short of money but I so want a himmy
