Hi Lawrence

I don’t know the all-up rider plus luggage weight limit of an AM, but the rear rack can carry a maximum of 30lbs and the front rack can carry up to 15lbs.

It is possible to fit a TSR front pannier rack with a bit of fiddling – I understand the factory used to sell an AM fitting kit for the rack so it may be worth contacting them to see if it’s still available. They also still make dedicated luggage for the AM front and rear racks if you’re feeling affluent.

This link may give you some more pointers.

Cheers

Hi
I’ve found that my lightweight tent, if rolled correctly will fit upright behind the seatppst, freeing up the racks. the old AM bag i have is just like a holdall. i do find the front rack a bit bouncy, best just for a small bag with just sleeping bag and thermarest and stove all of which are bulky but light. Overall, I find it handles much better loaded.

Hi guys and thanks for that. Peter, so you carried a tent and bag on the rear rack? Any pics of you loaded bike? Where have you toured on it?

Cheers, LG.
