My Cortechs hugged the exhaust shields for tens of thousands of miles without issue. The Mototreks touch as well. I don't foresee any problems....
Motocentric's Mototrek sport saddlebags are $80.00 on Motorcycle superstore now. The Touring are $90. I just replaced my Cortech (sport)...
The service department/manager says it looks in good shape. This thread is done.

Chain and sprockets are in. Waiting on an answer.
The picture in the manual shows bulges at the top and bottom with the plate viewed on edge. Mine has only a slight flare at the top. The bottom...
