ON MOTORCYCLES EQUIPPED WITH SADDLEBAGS, THE POSSIBLE OVERTRAVEL OF THE REAR SHOCK ABSORBERS, WHEN OPERATING IN ROUGH TERRAIN, MIGHT ALLOW THE REAR BRAKE CALIPER AND/OR REAR BRAKE LINE TO CONTACT THE RIGHT SADDLEBAG CARRIER. THIS COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE THE BRAKE LINE TO BE DEFORMED AND AFFECT REAR BRAKE PERFORMANCE.
