Get in touch with CoolKarim - he's a rider on this website who is based out of the UK who has done several overland trips across the Sahara on the same bike. He should be a great resource. Let me know if you find any neat upgrades for the bike.

Ah ha - thanks Kyle - I hoped someone would have mentioned this, I saw a picture of it the other day - here's the link btw.
Turbo City - Rock-It Parts
It looks pretty good (I like the way there is an extra brace back to the two bolts under the mudguard) - however, the problem still remains that the whole shebang is supported by the three bolts to the main frame, and it is these (I imagine) are the weak link when loading with luggage?
