Half the pannier load..
5 kgs, (11 lbs).

As you say there is nothing in the manual and also nothing on the dealer service CD rom.
Any recommendation will be on the low side, when I fitted an aftermarket rack to the standard rear GS plate it was marked with a maximum of 7.5kg and that was with the support arms fitted into the rear sub frame.
As you have the Zegas and don't need the mounting points for varios fit a GSA rear rack, not only stronger but lowers the load bed considerably.
So I wondered if the rack would support the weight of the tent, looks like it wont.
3 bags of vegetables, 1 bag of chilled produce and a six pack of beer, in your case
however, it depends on how good the checkout assistant is in packing for you.
Bugger......I want to put a 6.4kgs tent on it.
When I am am riding solo its not a problem, the tent will go across where the rear seat was.
However, Mrs BTBR wants to go away camping for a weekend on the bike.
Shame.....we cannot go then
But I have seen on the Wunderlich website a couple of support brackets to help support the rack. Maybe I'll check those out before I break the bad news to her.
) as when we did the East Midlands last year I had our big tent and stuff on the stock rack and the weight was about 15kg.
3 bags of vegetables, 1 bag of chilled produce and a six pack of beer, in your case

Shall I let Mrs BTBR know or will you?
