If like me, you don’t need a special attachment for the top box, but you’d like to be able to conveniently attach a tent, bag, or rollbag, you don’t have to rush to buy a special plate for a hundred euros. This cost can be easily reduced. How?
All we need is a 5mm 50x30cm aluminum sheet and a free rear rack template for Yamaha Tenere, which I provide below.
Then, take the sheet with the design to the nearest waterjet point.
To complete the set, we only need 4 screws and 3cm high aluminum sleeves.
I drive with this rack for over 40,000km and I’m really satisfied. I mounted various bags and tents to it. For a symbolic transfer, I can adapt the project, even to another motorcycle.
Your generosity is a great gift to me. If you appreciate my work, I encourage you to donate at least a symbolic PayPal transfer.

Thanks very much for your information it has been incredibly interesting and useful. I have printed the rear plate template and plan on having one made but how does one get the exact sizing to instruct the waterjet or lazer cutting people?
Hi Pierre. The template is placed on A3 format. Once you place it in a A3 document it should fit.
