You might want to redo that rear strut attachment
There have been cases of owners cracking that rear strut. The stock mounting uses two separate nut/washer combos and that design stresses the thin tubes at the holes.
I finished my conversion this weekend. The struts are attached using a simple U-bolt I got from the hardware store. The bonus is that the u-bolt has a plate, and spreads the load over more surface area; decreasing the likelihood of the strut failing.
I went this route because it doesn't require hacking up the original Can Am tail piece and I don't have to shell out $$$ for the sport rack and hack that up too. Instead of bending the top arm, I cut off the plate and will have it re welded once I get the mock up complete.
