It took a few days of fiddling but my Bestem 2012 T-Box is installed. This is my first hard luggage on a scooter or motorcycle so I tried to over build the rack. Worried about the latching system too so I drilled through the bottom of the box and zip-tied it to the rack. Kind of a semi-permanent mounting since I can snip the zip-ties in the future
Obviously I borrowed the instructions and ti0s from another members. Here's one thread http://burgmanusa.com/forums/14-bur...ished-instructions-diy-luggage-rack-pics.html & the wiring from MicBergsma
Thank you for this information!
I started with one 1/2 inch 36 inch long stainless steel threaded bolt, 4 nylon lock nuts & 4 washers. My hometown has a Fastenal store and I went with their suggestion of using all stainless nuts & bolts.
Next I cut the 36 inch bolt into two 16 inch lengths. Then you'll have to drill the holes out on the rear passenger rest to 1/2 which is just a 1mm or so larger.
Here's a few picture of the bolts installed.
