WTB BRP Sports Rack
Hi, from SW PA. Been a long time 2 wheel motorcycle rider, but brand new to the 3 wheel type. While the snow is still flying thought I would starting looking for a few add-ons for my new to me Spyder RS. First on my list is a sports rack. Plan is to mount a top box for my day trips. I've found new on ebay, but would like to see if someone has a used unit first before I pull the trigger on the auction site. Thanks for looking.

Good luck there FYI I just snagged a topcase on eBay myself & found the sports rack 2yr ago wrong color but intend to modify & powdercoat anyway just gotta stay within your limits & find right deal. Few dealers will clear out old stock & then you get new at used price no warranty other than listed in discription but you'll figure it out.

Thanks for the youtube video, watched it a couple times, I'm ready now. I read the info at the link you provided, surprised me that can am would make such a weak link. I believe they once had a backrest that fit in place of the sport rack lid. How did those arms holdup with torsional forces applied to them...scary. Wouldn't want to be a passenger leaning back against the backrest when/if they broke.

I'd like to thank everyone who has welcomed me to the forum, it's great to be here and be surrounded by such a knowledgeable group. I'm going to need all the help I can get as I become familiar with my new ride.

I have had a Givi Maxia 52 litre top box bolted to my sport rack cover for many years. Nothing has broken & many times the Maxia box has been overloaded. I no longer worry about its security but do remove the sport rack cover + Givi box from time to time to see if all is ok.
Check that the 2 spring clips that locate the fixing rod are on as far as they will go. I had one fall off when I did the initial installation.
