Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the KZ365 requires patience and precision. Because the rack requires drilling into the motorcycle's crankcase at specific manufacturer-prescribed points, it is highly recommended to perform this task in a clean, well-lit environment using proper drilling equipment. Ensure that you have the required mounting plates (KM5M or KM6M) on hand before starting. Periodically inspect the rack for any signs of bolt loosening or stress fractures around the mounting points, especially after heavy use or long rides. Wipe the rack down with a clean, damp cloth to remove debris, and apply a light coat of anti-corrosion spray to the exposed bolts if riding in coastal or salt-prone areas.
