• 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.

2014 RTS Trunk relocation

Has anyone figured out a way to move the RT trunk back to give back seat passenger a little more room?

Thanks in advance.
 
There's not really a good way to move the trunk that I know of. The trunk and both side compartments are one unit. Too much to deal with. My suggestion is to take the passenger backrest to an upholstery shop and have them shave out as must padding as possible to make it thinner.

:agree: …. I've tried to do quite a lot to my RT ( and accomplished most of them ) but moving the bodywork back even an inch would be so difficult - it wouldn't be worth the effort ……….. as a test just remove the pass. backrest completely and see if that's enough , then proceed for there …. Mike
 
Maybe try taking the passenger backrest and removing some of the padding. That maybe give you a bit more room.

It would be way to much work to move the trunk back.
 
As has been said, the trunk and saddlebags are one assembly. You could conceivably move all that back a half inch or so, but then you have the issue of reconnecting the side tupperware pieces to the the saddlebags with something to fill in the gap.
 
Ultimate seats make a rear seat back that is a bit thinner (1 inch?) than the standard. I bought the tallboy seat for myself, so I bought this seatback so my could recover some of the space I was taking from her. So far no issues, and you don't need the rest of the Ultimate seat for this to install. Installation is easy - there are three screws that you get to in the trunk that release the seatback.
