2012 Spyder RT-S Frunck Gasket

[FLNaturist]

I have always had a problem keeping the frunk gasket in place while loading/unloading my travel gear. Now I noticed that there is a tear in it. It appears to be cheap and fragile. I do not want to purchase a BRP part ($18.00) just to have it tear again. Any thoughts? Any after market replacements?

I used double stick tape

On my 2012 RT Limited - I ended up using double stick tape. I put 4 pieces about 6" long on each corner area. Seemed to keep it in place. I have not done it on our 2014 RT Limited, but probably should do so....it's only lifted one time so far.

Good luck. :thumbup:

Mine has torn a few times now.
I just keep patching it up with a little supper glue.

I know JT sells a replacement gasket for the RT622 trailer; not sure if that would also work on the frunk or perhaps he has something else that might work better than OEM.

You could always try being a bit more careful around the darn thing... pps:

Through 4 years of hard riding, the frunk gasket on mine (3 of them) have come loose only occasionally and then it was only when I wasn't being careful... A little extra care in using the frunk and no problems occur

Mine has popped-up once, in 5 Seasons... :2thumbs:

The gasket lifts off every time I store my duffel bag in there …. and I use it quite often. I am very careful with my Spyder but this gasket is made cheap and the top part is very thin. I don't even remember tearing it.

Glue it down... :thumbup:

I tore mine about 2 years ago. A little bit of Guerilla glue, close the frunk and let it set. Havent had an issue since then. It will come off from time to time. If you dont have a liner, get one. It will make it seat tighter.

IIRC, SpyderPops sells a replacement frunk gasket. :thumbup:

Spyderpops SPY116 is a vast improvement.
