Answering the O.P., Motolites are big and the risers and noodle can get in the way. I have Motolites on the Bruce Gordon. I had to work a custom install for the rear rack. I ultimately could not use a Pass Stow (which may be fortunate, as the Tubus Tara with a bar bag is probably better for loaded touring any way) as the noodle and the risers were in the way. I have no experience with the Nitto rack. All I can say is you will need to check. Paul is a good operation. I am sure if the Motolites did not work they would allow you to exchange for a set of Cantis.
