Newby with a question regarding the trunk
Greetings, just picked up a 2021 RT limited. I am new to three wheelers, but been riding 2 wheelers most of my life. I was very suprised what little information the dealer was able to provide.
Just wondering about the trunk lid. Isn't it supposed to stay up when opened? I wasn't sure if mine might be broken. Is there some sort of a gas shock kit for it?
Thanks in advace

Reason: Removed Prefix - this is a 'How do I?' not a 'How to:' DIY explanation....

On the earlier models of RT, there is no lift support for the frunk lid. You just open it past 90 degrees and it stops at about 120. A good wind will blow it shut, but otherwise it stays open.

From the video, watching specifically the gent opening the frunk, the MY'20-21 RTs open exactly the way mine does; no gas shock needed, nor IMO desired.
Artillery lends dignity to what would
otherwise be a vulgar brawl.

The rear TRUNK on 20/21 have a shock you just can't see it.

Thank you all who responded. Taking a closer look there is a gas shock on the right side. I removed the passenger backrest and saw the lower portion of the shock was not connected. Problem fixed
Again I am SO disappointed in the lack of Can-Am knowledge my dealer my dealer has.
