Top Box added to my 2018 F3T
When I was looking to change my RT for an F3 I could have gone for an F3Ltd but decided to go with the F3T as it was a cheaper option also I wanted to fit a top box that could be removed easily
I don’t carry a passenger so rear speakers were not needed
I’ve gone with a Shad 58X 3 way expanding from 46L to 52L up to 58L
The BRP 2018 specs shows the F3LTD has a cargo capacity of 133L and the F3T as 78L so if I set the Shad 58X top box up to 58L this will give a total capacity of 136L
I didn’t go for the BRP Top Box due to the cost
2019 Price for BRP Top Case £1.449 (it comes in black) and to add the White Colour panel kit £189
Total = £1,638
Shad 58X Top box £229 from e bay, White Colour top panel from Shad UK £52
(It came with a Carbon Fibre top but I wanted to get a White top to match my F3T)
Rack from Ca-Am Spyder Accessories (Canada) £250 + £28 import duty
Total = £559
A saving of £1,079
I drilled 6 holes in the Rack and using Stainless Steel Nyloc nuts, Bolt & Washers secured the Shad 58X Top box mounting plate, this allows the Top Box to removed in Seconds once its unlocked from the base mounting plate
For details on the Shad 58X see:-
