Hi all,

As the title says I`m thinking of fitting a top box to my curvy as the space under the pillion seat is minimal due to a rather large alarm in there, unless I only want to carry a packet of playing cards its pretty useless.

When I bought the bike I was given the frame (Kappa) that the top box would fit to but obviously no fitting instructions, I have had a look this morning and have kind of figured out that the ends of the frame would, or could attach behind the rear foot pegs? However there are fixings mid way between the rack and the ends that I do not have a clue where to attach to, any help would be appreciated.

Some pics may help:

Cheers in advance, as an aside if and when I get it attached then I will be looking for a box and recommendations ? I`munsure of sizes but guess large enough to carry 1 lid, a pair of boots and a chain and lock would be ok.
