Recently, the increase in left and right panniers is actually because…
they’re too long! Failed inspection, didn’t it (・´з`・)
Has that been happening more often?
Including the bracket, it’s ±3 CM, so you need to be careful (‘ω’)ノ
Rear panniers are pretty much going to be strict (・´з`・)
Just 3 CM (30 MM).
The pannier bracket alone is an extremely tight measurement.
If the case is installed on top of that, it will definitely catch on the length = inspection failure.
The reality is that length is checked extremely rarely
I get a chance to hear from customers who go for user inspections.
Even in risky situations, they say “it was usually easy, it passed last time and the time before that.”
Inspectors are human too.
They can’t cover everything, and they’re aware of how many vehicles they inspect in a day.
If they were diligent with each vehicle, it would go into tomorrow…
There are things they check and things they don’t.
Sometimes there are strict periods or directive inspections?
There was a period when back mirrors were being checked strictly.
There were also checks on meter indicator lamp confirmation.
If something becomes a priority item across the board, it gets stricter.
If they decided to check length every time, that would be a problem.
If it’s under your jurisdiction (the transport bureau for your license plate), you can change the dimensions, but if it’s different, you have to take it to the transport bureau in that jurisdiction.
Or you remove it on the spot… Risky items should be eliminated.
Bikes with absolutely no problems are rare (・´з`・)
If you’re being picky, one or two problems will come up.
There are things it’s better not to know and things you should know and prepare for.
Not knowing, you can go in confidently… Knowing, you get all nervous. That kind of thing.
You have to think about it when it’s pannier case inspection time!
