new owner here, trying to get my bike sorted out.....

1. My digital oil thermometer is not working. Is this common? I can replace the battery and check but just wondering if it's worth the trouble.
2. When I purchased the bike last week, I got a triumph brand color-matched top case with it. The case does not secure properly to the rack behind the sissy bar. The shape of the rack shelf does not match the receiver for the case resulting in a loose fit. It is a triumph rack but apparently not the correct rack/shelf to use with the top case. Has anyone run into this or does anyone have a rear shelf/rack that works with the sissy bar they are interested in selling? Maybe I should shim or adapt the rack or case receiver to play well together?
3. Does anyone have a rear fender rack (that can be used with solo seat) they're interested in selling?
For riding around town I like to ride with a solo seat and rear fender rack.
Any and all comments or questions are welcome!
Thanks!
 
Can you post a picture of the Top Case as they never made one for the Rocket. Thinking maybe it's for a Sprint ST or Sprint GT. I doubt it's for the New Trophy unless your beast is one of the silver ones. Anyway if you also post a picture of the bike rack we could let you know if it is for the Rocket.

the top case has triumph brand keys with it as well
 
The rack is the standard Rocket rack. It is not made to accept that case. I don't know what case that is, but my guess it could be for a Trophy.
