• 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 ShowChrome Rear Trunk Rack on an F3 Ltd?

Just wondering if anyone has mounted one of these on their F3Ltd? It says it mounts to the OEM rack mounting points IF replacing a factory rack. My Ltd does not have a rack and I'm looking at one to carry a light but bulky sleeping bag (it will fit in the trunk but then no place for my clothing bag and some other stuff for camping. The tent bag goes on the passenger seat OK but the sleeping bag compromises the driver seating position if included with the tent.
 
BRP has a rack that works with the new trunks. If the Show Chrome rack is specific for the new trunks then it should work. Use masking tape to mark the holes. I'm pretty sure there are Youtube videos on how to install them.

They work perfect. The black is pretty hard to find right now, has been back ordered from Big Bike Parts for months. Should be available in August. We have the same one installed on our F3LTD and also on our 2020RT.

Yes, I've mounted one on a 2018 F3-Ltd. It's been a few years, but I believe there are dimples or pips on the inside of the lid to indicated location for the holes. An added benefit is that the rack stiffens up the trunk lid (but adds weight, as well) making the lid easier to manage when opening/closing.
 
Yes, and I just used it on a trip. It took maybe 10 minutes to install. Very easy and worth every penny. If you open the trunk you will see the dimples where you drill holes. They will include instructions that come with the rack. Simple to install. Enjoy!
 
I put one on mine. Easy to install. I stiffened up the lid so now it is much easier to line up and close. I will say that it was kind of nerve-racking to drill through. (See what I did there?) :P
