4. Verify that the rack is stable and does not interfere with any moving parts of the motorcycle (e.g., suspension, chain, wheels) or rider/passenger comfort.

4.2 Attaching the Side Cases

1. Align the mounting points on the back of each side case with the corresponding attachment points on the universal rack.
2. Secure the cases to the rack using the designated locking or fastening mechanisms. Ensure a firm and rattle-free connection.
3. Test the security of the cases by gently pulling and pushing them. They should not have excessive play.
4. Confirm that the cases do not obstruct turn signals, taillights, or license plates.
