    I just added a tourtech rear fender rack to my "11 TE310. I thought I'd share some photo's. The bag I have on it now is a front number plate bag that is working but I will probably look for something more fitting. The rack is pretty simple to install, 3 bolts. The finish is nice as well.

    Very nice. Just about the right size to keep the tools and junk out of my comeback.

    Doug can you post a photo from underneath ?
    Is it mounted just in the plastic ?

    I have a 08 te450. And my rack will be here today , but the problem is they say it's for a 09 and up .

    Do you think the plastic fender will support the weight of a tool bag?
    I had mounted my tool bag directly to the fender on my KTM and destroyed the fender, had to buy a PMB rack, the PMB rack attached to the sub frame, that method with the PMB is indestructible.
    PMB does not make a rack for the 2011 310, to bad.

    I put a TT on mine as well, I knew I needed some strength underneath, so I made 3 steel brackets: 2 small side brackets and a larger, arched middle bracket, to transfer the stress to the sub-fraem, 5000 miles with some hard off-road and all is solid.

    I also added some stainless cabinet handles for bungee hooking

    Wow...those stainless cabinet handles look really nice! Good thinkin'! :thumbsup:

    I am a huge fan of RokStraps. Haven't used a real bungee cord since I started using them.

    I used to have a 150cc scooter that had a tailbox, the latching tab broke on it, but I saved the rack anyway. Found the other day and it was a perfect fit on top of the Touratech, makes for a bigger platform for my bag, and provided some hook points at the front, allowing me to simplify my bungee methodology..
