Did I overbuild my rear wing mount?
Two things I despise: 1) oil leaks and 2) anything that isn’t solidly “nailed” down.
So, with #2 as a driving force I went about mounting my new rear wing to the Staffs gearbox. It is nice and solid. But now, thinking about it, I realize were I to spin and swipe something (guardrail, tire wall) with the wing, it seems it would likely bend/break at the two bolts at the gearbox. Maybe that would happen regardless? What is the consideration here (aside from “don’t hit anything”)? I'm not sure if it should be "fused" to break someplace else... Pics below. A few notes:
The square aluminum tube sticking fwd and aft around the exhaust pipe will be cut flush with the black mounting tank plates, if I keep the tube. The rain light is mounted to similar square tube but it runs vertically.
