Any photos of a trunk actually being installed on a RSTD ???

[FuzzyRSTD]

I have a trunk now, thanks to Phoneman1982, and it is being painted to match my color scheme of my bike.

Thanks to Kickshot and Oldbutnewrider I have the extra backrest. I am so blessed to be a part of the site here. I am very thankful for everyones help and kind gestures. I do fully plan on paying it forward to others. Thank you very very much.

Was wondering if anyone took any photos of a trunk project add on ? ** Especially when using the quick release backrest.

This is what I plan on doing. Cutting the sissy bar off and installing the trunk onto the luggage rack. I have saw some completed installs, but no real photos of the process. I am assuming you just cut the sissy bar off at the top of the luggage rack bracket and go from there. Any help, photos would be greatly appreciated.

I forgot to mention that I did do a search and found no photos of the sissy bar cut off idea.

Those are not Royal Star's correct?

They look like Road Star's with V-Twins.

I understand the concept is the same as

far as the trunk goes, I'm just curious.

 

I'd also like a trunk for my 1997 but I don't think they made

a RSV for my generation of bike.

After I posted the pics I saw I may have boo boo'd. I think the blue one is a road star, the other is the early TD I believe with the 4 pipe exhaust.

Ask around over on the Delphi forums here and see if someone can help ya out.

The blue one is a V-Star, the silver one is Road Star.

may need a larger rack the RSTD rack is small and curves up. a larger trunk will not last very long on the small rack.

I bought a Venture trunk support rack off ebay for under $100. Took off the passenger backrest and removed the 2 quick release studs. Put on the trunk. Easy Peazy. lol

I used a Matuza HD Tour pack with lights, and a Venture trunk rack. Added rubber stoppers under the trunk to take up the space between it and the rack. Ordered a Die-cut YAMAHA sticker to put where that other name usually goes. And a wiring harness from Steve (http://www.venturerider.org/forum/members/m61a1mech) to power it up.
