UPDATE

My Brother Mick gave me an unwanted topbox & baseplate after he bought a BMW K1200GT and fitted a BMW topbox to it. The supplied bracket was toast, so I modified the Gearsack rack and bolted the topbox directly to it using ss fasteners. I cut the rack in a way the it can be easily refitted with a sleeve, should I have the need to be able to use the slip on bag again. As I always ride solo, there is enough space for my expandable tail pack on the seat and for my throw over soft panniers. At least I now have secure, waterproof storage on my budget tourer!
