    Default 2014 RTS foldable flag pole for the trunk

    Unable to locate a flag pole that will fold down. THis way I can cover my RTS SE6. Anyone know of a vendor that supplies these. Looking for two of them. Looked at the threads and did not see anything,

    Several covers have a hole for the antenna. If you don't have one yet look for one of those.

    This is the best I came up with. If you have a trunk rack mage of 1/2" tubing, there are folding ones that will clamp to it.

    I have the Rivco flag poles on my 2012,one on each side. I use the the Ultragard Essentials cover for the Can Am RT it is fitted but comes with 2 antenna flaps. I am able to move the cover just enough to accomodate my flag poles and on the right side the antenna as well.

    Actually, when I mentioned covers with antenna holes I was suffering a momentary brain lapse! For some reason flag pole equated to antenna in my mind. Oh well, if you've got a solution that's good!

    Such flagpoles ain’t difficult to make. There`re plenty of such DIY videos on youtube. Flags are attached to flagpoles made of metal, wood, or fiberglass. Metal is more durable. Wood is the cheapest material. However, it`s prone to rotting and cracks. Now fiberglass- this baby ain’t afraid of water or frost. Fiberglass masts are lightweight but durable, making them an ideal option. I also suggest looking into equipping the flag pole lights, in case you might be open to the idea. I got a flagpole that’s got these solar flag pole lights hooked up - very handy thing, you get the flag illuminated at night after the lights have "collected" solar energy throughout the day. Plus, I don't have to spend any extra money on electricity.
