depends on what rack it is, its its just a manual rack then its piss easy to get out, 5 min job, if its a hydro power one then its a fiddly job but really nothing to worry about.

Rack itself is only four bolts to the bulkhead, I found it easiest to release the lower mount and remove the gear linkage for more room. It's not massive on a B.
