i copied another design i found on the forum somewhere. used some thick L plate i had lying around and some box section from b&q.

it bolts on where the rear hydragas can covers are.

ive since blocked the ends up and painted it black.

It made a slight improvement which should be better once I solid mount the rear frame.

Just be careful if you have a large rear silencer as the silencer will hang a lot lower than that

What's the benefits of this?

Guess it's to brace the open end of the subframe to reduce/eliminate flex?
