2005 Triumph Rocket 3 Classic
On the newer rockets you can get an easy removable luggage rack.
I went to my local Triumph dealer and he's not sure if it will fit the 05 Rocket because the chrome piece on the fender that it fits onto is a different part number, I just measured and from Center to Center of each bolt is 8 3/4 and the newer ones seem to be 9 3/4.
As any one done this so I can put my trunk on it and take it off easy with a key so I can just have the single seat look when I want.
if any one has done this please share on how they did this.
 
They look nice Mittzy.

Mittzy does the polish look almost like the chrome?
Do you need to loosen all four bolts to take off ? And tighten all four bolts to put back on?
Could I pay extra if you can do one useing a key as a quick release ?
Or make what ever part I need to make Triumph quick release work for my 05 ? They say it only fits the touring
It seems that my fender bolts is 8 1/2 apart and the touring is 9 3/4 so would I just need some bracket that attaches to my front bolt and extent to 9 3/4 ? And my second bolt could bolt the end down securing it?
Could you make me that part?
 
I've a 2013 touring...and mine comes off in a jiffy. Unlock it, lift two hidden levers....heave it forward and up, and there it is! I don't know how different the roadsters fender is with regard to fitting the same thing up. Mittzy's model does look spiffy though!
 
When I bought my Roadster a year ago, I measured the fender width of the fenders because I wanted a removable backrest. The width of the Touring is about 1" narrower than the Roadster (if I recall correctly). I have since bought the Mitzy removable backrest. It works really well and leaves no unsightly bracket behind as the Touring OEM QR does.
 
Short answer is NO WAY I will not be redesigning this bracket and may not even do a forth run. This WILL NOT fit a touring and I have never made anything for a touring model.
This bracket kit only fits the standard, roadster and classic (saddle bag mod may need to be done)
Sorry dude
 
I am so glad this thread is not about prosthetic breasts...
