    Default Lost more tupperware.

    Speaker grill and fairing on my F3T top box went flying yesterday somewhere along my breakfast ride. No flipping clue how it popped off or where. Never had any reason to pull the cover off so it's never been removed by me. I was the last guy in the group so no one saw it come off. I had two panels come off my RTL in 35k miles and now this with 9500 miles on the F3. I love the bike but this speaks to PP design and engineering on BRP's part when it comes to all the tupperware. Dealer started paper work and ordered parts yesterday. Not something I'd think to check on a pre-trip but maybe now.....

    Default Not common.....

    Could a passenger or photo oportunist have bump/hit it and knocked it loose...?? could it have been actually stolen...?? were all the gromets still there in place..?? just some questions I would ask myself....bummer but if brp doesn"t have them try cheapcycleparts.com, they are cheaper and have better oem stock....

    If your dealer added the top box I’d say they are likely to blame. If panels are properly positioned they don’t just fall off. I’m guessing your dealer agrees since they “started paperwork”.

    Default BRP is paying for the parts.

    Well the panel was on when we left from the diner. I've looked and looked and can't see how it could have come off. Dealer called me today and since I was in the area I stopped by. Beats them and everyone that looked at it. BRP said order the parts and they would pay for them. That's the Great news. I guess that will start to be on my pre-ride check list from now on but...
