SPYDER REAR TRUNK

[mastertek2000]

Looks nice. curious though, why not go with a smaller box since you can only put 20lbs in it? Or does it just look bigger than it is? :dontknow: 20lbs of clothes? i guess you put yours in the saddle bags...:roflblack:

For some reason the pictures make the box look so much bigger then it is LOL 20 LBS of stuff fills it so nice sleeping bags towels and clothes we love to camp when we tour

Nice job. :thumbup: I love to see people innovate. Be cautious about putting too much weight in that big box though. The amount of lift from the box will be magnified by the length of the bracket the box is mounted on. You could become the first Spyder to do a wheelie if you load the box too heavily. :yikes:

and I would be JEALOUS

I rode upto Laconia today with mastertek2000 and his wife, got to see the trunk first hand, very impressive. Rock solid and done very well, placed aerodynamicly behind the saddle backs, heat shielding from exhaust.

Really handy trunk, sometimes a trailers just too much and you just want that little bit of extra room, this fits the bill perfectly.

Nice, clean professional looking job.

Is the trunk permanently mounted on the bike? Or does it come on and off?

it comes off when not in use

I like the idea that there are no trailer wheel bearings to repack,no need for a spare...but,I would like it wired for lights and maybe have a temporary mount for the license plate...I can't make out if that is the plate or a tag on the box....I think you can sell these!!:clap:
