R11xxGS subframe reinforcement
I am prepping an 1150 Adventure for a S.American / African trip. I am concerned about the subframe. I have read too much about frame fractures on the road. I will be riding solo, and don't plan on carrying a ton, but while I have the time and resources, I would like to do as much prevention as possible. Question: where are the points on the frame that commonly need reinforcement? Also, is there any reason not to weld on the Touratech pannier frame- at the bolted attachment points, to the frame? Thanks a bunch
