There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Anyone put a Tail Rack & Box on their RSS?

HOMCOM Detachable Scooter Motorcycle Trunk Top Case Lock Storage Luggage T- Box Black (44L)
Bestem (LGBM-K16-TPL) Black Top Box Liner

They changed the model and dropped the price. I got the top box the interior bag and the liner for mine. You have to redrill the plate to make it fit the back rest plate on the spyder.
I included the three link for Amazon prime.
Hope that helps

If its not too much trouble could you post a pic of it on your bike; curious about how the 44L case looks.

Ok I found one, not the best but you can see what it looks like. I love it I pac the top box bag with all my clothes, easier to unlock the bag and pull out the case and walk in. The frunk I put all rain gear extra gloves etc. When I empty the top box I put my helmet and gps in the top box. I also hooked up the brake light that is on the box as well, nice and bright.

About a decade ago there was a company that sold brackets for the GS RS RSS frame . That gave you the option to add a passenger backrest that could also support an extension to attach a top box ( as mentioned above ) to. ..... Sorry but I can't remember the name , I think it started with a " K "...... I bought them for my 12 RSS and made a template so I could re-produce it in the future ...... Good luck .....

To be clear you mean the sports rack & top case:dontknow:
BRP# 219400294. Know the top case required the passenger back rest to mount. So rack up total :sports rack + backrest+ case =$$$$:sour: & believe it or not they would not offer my hung color or keys, If already had saddle bags:barf::banghead:

Ya sorry bout that another BRP blunder, just before they discontinued RS & ST lines slight frame change so the racks only fit 13& prior. Piece of extruded aluminum goes into frame & extended tail where sport rack mounts.

The sport rack in the you tube is expensive, but it was on the bike when I bought it. If you are handy or have a friend that works with metal it would not be too hard to manufacture a suitable frame to mount it on. I have done a number of additions were i manufactured the parts, brake extension and highway pegs

I wish I did have those metal skills! That rack is expensive but the bike was a deal on the front end so I have excess funds to bring it up to a light touring spec- found one on eBay. Added some floor boards, heated grips, have a brake extension kit to attach and will get a heel/toe shifter fabricated.

I am looking at the Shad top cases- looking for one big enough to put a full face helmet in so I don’t have to drag into a restaurant. The frunk+ Top case + a dry bag bungeed to the passenger seat should be plenty of storage for a “one up” weekend trip. I saw your setup that looks awesome!

Thanks. Attached the BRP rack yesterday- a bit over engineered if you ask me. A lot of complexity to gain a storage compartment even smaller than the size of the Ryker storage. Looks good though; waiting on some stainless steel spacers to mount the SHAD topcase that arrived yesterday.
