If your looking for some extra storage without pulling a trailer this might be an option for you? A simple DIY project that only takes a couple of hours to build. I put some photos and instructions together however the file is too big to load up on this string. Flip me your email and I will send my notes. I just did a test run with my wife 1800 kms through the mountains and it easily carried all our cold /wet weather riding gear allowing us to enjoy the warm 30 degree C sun. Love my RT. Marty

Nice but this brings up a question. There is a weight limit for the trunk. Adding more weight to the rear like that, isn't that a problem?
I would think whatever the tongue weight of the 622 trailer is, this should be the limit for this idea too?
