MOD BMW F800/F650 GS Top Rack
MOD BMW F800/F650 GS Top Rack
Lot's of new things to report on the F800/F650 GS Top Rack!
First up following in the footsteps of the KTM 990/950 Adv. & 950 SE version released earlier this year two more top box mounting options have been added!
SW-Motech Trax and Caribou's QFS System...

)
Bare Top Rack shown here:
It's also now fully CNC machined. We've always finished all the slot and perimeter edges on them put now they're all perfect, courtesy of the CNC.
SW-Motech Trax Top Box mounting (shown on the KTM Adv/SE version)
Simply bolt their mount kit for the Trax box on our Top Rack and you're set!
Caribou's DIY QFS Universal system bolted on:
They too bolt right into existing holes we've designed in.
They make two versions Pelican and any case. The Pelican version is shown here but I'd recommend the any case version as it's ever lower profile (one plate thickness instead of two).
Easy to have different sized boxes for different uses then too if you want. Medium box and top rack in forward position.
Nanuk small box, top rack in forward position.
...and on the inside:
Dzus fasteners inside so a quick turn and it's off.
Once again this is Do It Yourself option and it works great!
Next up, in our on-going efforts to have our MOD Top Rack fit with everything out there making for easy installation and perfect fit, we present our newest Hepco + Becker (and Caribou) compatible spacers.
Here's the whole line up:
All 6061 Alu. CNC machined. No heavy steel chunks here. Large top surface for maximum rack support.
The Hepco+Becker/Caribou spacers are the longest ones on the far left.
H+B raise the stock handles with spacers and their rack fits under so we needed to make longer spacers to accommodate it (and also use longer bolts). No spacers are are needed for the front and we supply longer bolts for the front and back. Easy and solid. Caribou also uses H+B racks when they sell their boxes with the racks so these work for that too.
The fit list:
Standard Spacers (2nd and 3rd from left)
-stock handles
-BMW Varios
-BMW Alu. box side racks
-Touratech
-SW-Motech
-Holan
-Metal Mule (no front spacers required)
H Spacers (far right)
These substitute the standard front ones and are used with the standard rear ones
-Happy Trail
-Wolfman/ Backroads Moto
J spacers (second from right)
These substitute the standard rear ones and are used with the standard front ones
-Jesse
C Spacers (far left)
No front spacers are required, however longer bolts are required for the front and rear.
-Hepco + Becker
-Caribou (using Hepco+Becker racks at this time)
Givi side racks are different altogether as they have built in a top rack to it. We have two possible solutions there too. Details pending.
You can substitute any spacers at the time of purchase or add them on top.
Of course you can buy them separately too so if you change what you are using...no problem ! :clap:
Top Box Compatibility:
Just bolt on the appropriate mounts and you're all set to go
-Givi/Kappa Monokey (we have Monokey mount kits available too)
-SW-Motech Trax
-SW-Motech steel top rack adapter
DIY
-Caribou QFS
-MOD KISS
Fuel Cell Compatibility:
Just bolt on the appropriate mounts and you're all set to go
-Rotopax (all sizes), right side mounting too with their L bracket
-Kolpin Jr
Keyhole quick release in the slots facilitates removal and swapping of options
50mm (2") fore and aft adjustment to centralize load solo or make room for passenger
Many well positioned slots and cut-outs for soft luggage (works perfectly with the Giant Loop Great Basin even giving you different fore and aft set up options), all properly chamfered top and bottom (and the perimeter) so it won't cut straps.
This distances the best BMW F650/F800 GS Top Racks yet again!
All of the different spacers are in stock.
Any questions...let me know here or dave(at)motooverland(dot)com!
