can you remove any of the racks?

No, they are all attached to each other. They do however, come limetedly apart from each other enough to swing the layers to fold flat for storage.

Plant shelves? Do you mean the small racks on the back part? If so, yes they are removable.

The rods are removable but I am no sure the rack would stand straight and not tip over backward.

No. There are only the three shelving racks with a total of 4 separate areas.

The rack-mounted brackets on the unit that I own are removable. However, they remain on because they are unobtrusive.

Yes you can, you can only not insert the rack and you´ll have an open space.

I don't see why not. Rack is simple on and off. I load rack and two bikes in 5 minutes and remove all upon return.

No with the bike loaded it makes it very heavy to do so. Can do it with rack only no bikes.

The one that I purchased, the drip tray could be removed. It is separate from the rack. Both items started to rust within a year of use.

Definitely not something you'll be taking on and off regularly. Though perhaps you could just swivel the rack around so its above the top tubestay? Not sure if that would work for you but that would be your best bet. You'll be stripping screws like crazy and its a pain enough to get it tightly mounted that theres no way you'd be taking it on and off often.

You have to remove rack. I was very disappointed with, this product. Ended up getting bungie straps and placing both bikes in the bed of my truck (upside down) and strapped them safely. This product allowed way to much wiggle to the bikes and made me constantly worry about the bikes falling, and believe me when I say, I tried everything! Just not a very stable product.

Yes they can be removed. Here is a link to the PDF manual. You can look at the assembly instructions. http://content.charbroil.com/content/Char-Broil/Knowledge/11201677%20English.pdf

Yes, the shelves can be removed. The shelves can be adjusted in 2 in. increments or completely removed.

Well...you can remove all the trays and top....every tray comes off. I don't know how much more apart you would need it to be.

No - the bikes and rack would need to be removed before we could access our trunk.

Very easy to remove. As other has said, it takes a bit of time the first time but afterwards its ok. Longest time is spent making sure it is even/centered on the rack.

Remove the bungees immediately! Then get 2 bungee cords and cross them thru the handle on top of the rack. To remove, just unhook the bungees. Easy on, easy off.
