The rack for the Triumph. Does it attach directly onto the rear carrier by clips and such or are there fastenings involved? If I need nuts and bolts etc I'll filch them from work before I go up to Derby and the Black Horse so I can affix said lump of plastic to the bike for the journey home.

I suspect you have got the wrong end of the stick here. Have a look at this: http://www.kazior.de/gebraucht/Bilder/triumph/Trophy 900 seite.JPG See the rack mounted behind the saddle? Standard Trophy rack, that. *However*, that's not what you are getting from me. What I have in the shed is one of these *topbox* efforts, which mounts on the Standard Trophy Rack: http://www.localriders.com/photopost/data/500/94902052523.jpg It's British Racing Green (same as picture), has a very slight scuff in the paint, and a small crack in the grey plastic bit by one of the hinges. There are two keys with it, and a spotless one of these: http://www.thunderbirdsportriders.net/images/Haynes.jpg All of the above, as previously mentioned, costing you precisely zilch. If this no longer meets your requirements, let us know before Friday and we can save Matt a detour, and I'll either sling it on ebay or raffle it at the BOSM...
What I actually meant was does the *Topbox* mount on the rack using clips and stuff etc etc Momentary lapse of concentration caused by lack of alkyhole !! I blame lack of money meself -- -- Robbo Trophy 1200 1998 BMW K100 RS 1984 "Fairly Quick" status. Silver level BotaFOF #19. E.O.S.M 2001/2002/2003/2004.

Oh and the pic of the Blue Trophy looks like mine minus the panniers. So therefore the topbox will compliment the stuff already fitted after I have *a man wot is good with painting* re-colour it to the right tone. Many thanks again Beer will flow in your direction when we next meet. -- -- Robbo Trophy 1200 1998 BMW K100 RS 1984 "Fairly Quick" status. Silver level BotaFOF #19. E.O.S.M 2001/2002/2003/2004.

No. The topbox clamps itself onto the rack. There's a slidy catch thing with a lock, that hooks onto the rack and locks in place, firmly enough to keep a pillion in place at 120MPH.
Magic! Just what SWMBO wanted..........a back rest! Seriously, she finds not having something supporting her back disconcerting when pillion, so the topbox will serve a dual purpose. I suppose I'll have to provide a feckin cushion as well next! -- -- Robbo Trophy 1200 1998 BMW K100 RS 1984 "Fairly Quick" status. Silver level BotaFOF #19. E.O.S.M 2001/2002/2003/2004.

What more could I ask. That's even more beer your way then. What a star -- -- Robbo Trophy 1200 1998 BMW K100 RS 1984 "Fairly Quick" status. Silver level BotaFOF #19. E.O.S.M 2001/2002/2003/2004. B.O.S.M 2003, 2004 FURSWB#1 KotL..YTC449 PM#7 ..
