Anyone got a spare old metal rack thats scrap or cheap laying around? I've just purchased an old police box for the bike. Want to put a rack on top for adding more luggage. Thought I'd ask here before I go to ebay.
Also what would be the best will to block in those holes at the back so I can make the inside waterproof.

Silicone for the holes or fill them with epoxy resin- araldite is most readily available- tape across the bottom of the hole, fill with araldite, remove tape when set.
Or an appropriately sized blind grommet (this would be the best). ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

Considering that you're cultivating a rat look, I'd just put multiple layers of duck tape over the holes, in the messiest way possible. ____________________ Biking is 1/20th as dangerous as horse riding.

What you ideally want is something like this that I had on the topbox of my Goldwing.

However they do not come cheap, even second hand so I presume a hacksaw, a welder and some rusty old pile of dead rack is your best option. ____________________ Triumph Trophy Launch Edition |

Turns out all of the paint melted off, but the metal is solid still.
