I learned meaning of blowing holes straight through. That nice thin-walled box section was way too thin. Awful job.
I made a rack for front and back but the idea is/was to be removable from the main rails. My drill bits are all shoddy so I got two holes for the front and resorted to zip-ties. It’s got the two to locate it, and the cable ties to hold it down proper. It’ll do.
Fixed front racks are weird. Rides absolutely fine and the weight is so much with the extra on the front there are no wheelies.
Definitely learnt why people abandon stick welding for mig/tig/gas for anything other than girders.
Got a wet arse too, so going to wrap the rear rail in dayglow yellow as a makeshift ass-saver.
