    BTW anyone looking for these top cases contact Blake at Pitbull Powersports as they had 14 of them in stock even though my dealer said they wouldn't be available until April!

    Default Bracket

    Actually the 'bracket' shown in removal video is not the bracket that is so confusing. The kit includes another bracket that reinforces the subframe and is mounted under the riders seat. It really is not directly related to the Top Case at all, except perhaps to compensate for the additional stress to the subframe that might occur due to exra weight so high and rearward.

    If you remove the seat and the side panels you will see where it lays in and you have to drill 2 holes to mount it and the other 2 holes are already there. It strengthens the joint between the mid and rear frame.

    They have arrived at the Canam dealer in Essendon, Melbourne, Australia, but are incomplete. The colour panels that will complete the topcase will not be available until June. This is a deal killer for me as I need it for a major trip late May.

    HEY SMOKES!! Get ahold of Blake at Pitbull Powersports and have them FEDX the correct color panels to you.

    Default Installed the top case on my 2017 f3 top case ..need some help

    Hello
    Well the instruction for installing the f3 top case were awful. I think I got most of it done but I have a question on the cargo harness. The new harness they have you install has two pink female connectors that come off it on the front part of the harness towards the front seat. I can not for the life of me see where they plug in. Can anyone help?

    Thanks folks

    Default FIGURED IT OUT

    I figured it out the extra plugs there not necessary. They must be for another option .

    Default 2016 F3 L Top Case wiring harness

    So I need a clarification.

    is the wiring harness needed to connect the amp to the radio preinstalled in the 2016 F3 L?
    If not how hard is it to add this harness?
    Thanks, Rick

    Default USB

They were told the 2016 harness doesn't run power to the rear USB ports. Neither one of mine are powered.
    BS I have the 2016 F3T. I installed my rear box myself and mine works. Wiring is there

    I know there is wiring/power there for the usb connection but specifically the harness from rear speaker amp to radio is preinstalled?

    After reading all of this I am slowly being convinced that "less" is more. Currently have two RT's, but future bikes will not have top cases. I find I don't need them and am surely not willing to pay an additional $2K for them--even though they look very nice.
