Tunnel Rack, storage solution, linq accessories

[TurboJamie]

So could you not just buy the linq brackets and mount them directly to the tunnel and save the weight of the rack as the viper has no rear heat exchanger?

Just sayin

You could in a way, but it would be tough and the brackets you made to bolt to the tunnel would still need to be spaced off the tunnel approx 1/8" to clear the hardware from the linq brackets. You could likely make bushings and drill and tap the plate and change the setup, but we didn't have the time to monkey around.

Cool idea! Thanks for sharing. Can you please tell me if I can purchase empty fuel containers from the providers of self storage in Mulgrave? If yes, then I am going to purchase it during my next camping.

Wanted to bump this back up. We have 761 miles now running this rack and its perfect, hasn't moved doesn't ice up or anything. Very good addition to the sled.

Sweet! I want one. Does this rack system eliminate the rear tail light? Hope not but don't see one on your sled . . . .

After busting my fly, and making a mess.
Does this come with hardware to install?
What size of Bag do you have on back?
This will be going on my Viper.

well, I ordered this system. I must say after 12 beer, this went on in 1.5 hour. The next day, it still looked good and smart.
Very nice set up for storage. Have a good day Eh!

No rack is required to run the linq stuff the tunnel is too narrow to use the accessories. Otherwise no rack needed.

I'm guessing this is an LTX it's on as the head light/bumper are under the end of the rack? Still happy with it? Just looking for some storage options instead of hauling a sleigh. Guessing it rivets on to the tunnel?

I have the short 10+3 bag. Pn: 860200622.
My came with everything except the fuel can and bag, and ratchet clamps.
The install was easy. Just make sure all is square before you drill.
I do not have a step by step, but this is how it turned out. You have room to add other stuff on as well.
I added a clamp for my shovel.

Looks good...are those Yamaha bags? I was under the impression it was a Ski Doo system?
