The stays provided with the top box rack that run from the pillion foot pegs to the underside of the frame under the pillion seat can't be fitted with the V35 pannier rack which gets in the way, and shares the same foot peg bolts. I don't suppose this matters to much as the pannier frame provides some support.

Attach the rack and stay on opposite sides of the footpeg hanger, using bolts, nuts and washers like this:-

Those are all stainless 8mm. Doing it that way makes the pannier frames easily removable without disturbing the rest of it. The same arrangement works for the flat-front racks needed for E21s etc..

With your load I suggest your tail end needs all the support it can get - put those diagonal stays in!
