Re mounting points.
The bike was only designed with two - either the normal position - top hole of 2 on footrest hanger or low- hole in pannier frame.
You MAY be able to utilise the centre option, however this is meant only as the mounting point for the pannier frame to the footrest hanger.
The problems you may encounter using this option are firstly, the centre of this hole to the eye at least, seems to be at a different radius from the exhaust collector than the two mounting points ( although if you loosen your silencer brackets, there is about 20mm fore & aft adjustment on them so that may sort that out. ) and secondly, check the amount of mounting bolt sticking out at the back of this centre hole if you use it as there is not a great deal of clearance for the swingarm, especially for two up work where you will be using more of the suspension travel.
Let us know the results!
Andy
