Rack for additional storage on top of top box.
« on: September 04, 2022, 22:53:28 »
My girlfriend and I have started to travel two up, which means I can no longer use the pillion seat for luggage.
Does anyone know what rack can be fitted above my top box, so that I can strap the tent or other luggage  to it?
The top box is the standard Suzuki/Soft brand, fitted  to the DL1000GT.

Since there is no pix of your luggage setup, do you think that the Givi E81B rack will fit on your current top box?   https://www.givi.co.uk/givi-products/cases-for-motorcycles-and-scooters/plastic-motorcycle-top-cases/e460/e81b
There is a weight limit that can be carried wrt the top box, before the top box rack would require some sort of support to be installed.
Do you have pannier racks fitted?  Perhaps a rack mounted on each pannier lid would be another option?
