Does anyone know where I can get a larger plate to attach to my back rack? I have a 49 ltr top case but when it comes to riding two-up with camping gear, the case doesn't have the dimensions I need. I would prefer to just have a nice deck where I can set a nice wide dry bag with all of my gear instead.

I'm pretty sure there are companies which build exactly what you want. Unfortunately, I don't know their names. With that said, this doesn't answer your question, but it may be something that can resolve your problem.

I bought the flatbed rack which goes over the pillion's seat. It's a quality built product and from what I have seen, the company has a great reputation.

Hope this helps a little.

Thanks, Cliff. I've looked at the BMR rack and like the design. I might look into retrofitting it to mount on the back. I'm going to be 2up on a camping trip so the stock mounting location on the BMR rack won't work.

I see you want to do two up, with this rack, just take the plate, you could mount it on your tail rack with some spacers of appropriate length and screws. Either drill through your bike rack or use clamping brackets. The plate looks good.

But this item is made for your bike and you could put the plate on it to give you more room.

When I bought my 2008 RT it had a 49 L top box with a BMR shelf mounted on top of the box. I took the shelf off to reduce weight for everyday driving and used rubber grommets to fill the holes. When I travel a put it on and use it for an Ortleib dry bag which holds my laundry.
