    This is what I have on my 2016 ST-S...it's the Givi top box, matches my saddle bags.
    I already had the passenger backrest, and needed to add the rack for the top box to mount onto.

    I know this is an old thread, but I'm in the same position - need to add the rack for the top box to mount onto. Where did you find the rack? Thanks in advance for your help

    I did something similar but instead of cutting a whole on the mounting plate I cut a nylon cutting board to shape. I bought an extra plate for the tail and drilled holes for the mounting plate and cut the cutting board to roughly the same shape as the cover then mounted everything to the plate an put it in place then set the trunk onto the mounting plate.

    Well , this post is from 13 years ago right before my trip to the very first Spyder Homecoming in Valcourt Quebec. but this is my post of how I did I it. Your setup would be the same . This is prior to me adding the givi side bags which were added at the homecoming . Side note ~ The post linked below is from SpyderTalk which was the predominant Spyder forum ( which Lamont was a member of ) before he left and started his own , aka : Spyderlovers. Currently that SpyderTalk site is just archived info, but I mention it only because it has some really good reference stuff for the older spyders if you search around . https://www.spydertalk.com/threads/g...nstalled.5649/
