Can this trunk be removed easily from the hardware to get to the gas compartment? Or does the hardware have to come off as well to remove It?

it mounts on the back of the bike above the fender. it shouldn't need to be removed to get to the gas tank. it doesn't remove that easily.

On my bike, it sits on my luggage rack that is behind the seat. My gas tank is under the seat, but if you have a different setup, yes it will. It will mount with 4 bolts/screws through the bottom.

It is held on to your luggage rack or other mount by 4 bolts through the bottom...don't see how it would be taken on and off very easily particularly if you have the lights wired. I haven't taken mine off since I got it for that very reason...just too difficult.

What are you riding? If it's a scooter, I have no idea how it mounts. If on a full size bike, well it mounts well away from the gas tank. And for those buying or have bought. To stop the rattle the box will make going over rough road and bumps, hot glue inside the box along the seam, and also use the hot glue, or thread lock on the small nuts on the inside from coming loose.

Yes it is very easy to remove. It takes a few minuets to take out of the vehicle. I love it

The lid will become disconnected if you open the lid all the way back and there's nothing behind to support it. I keep the trunk up against a wall so that won't be an issue. Before I knew that, though, I did have the lid come off and it's a bit of a pain to re- attach it. So yes the lid does come off, if not intentionally! If you did it intentionally or more than a time or two, I'd worry about the hinges being damaged. All in all though, I love these storage boxes!

As far as I know, it cannot be removed. Nothing can be disasbled, at least for me nothing could. When I brought it over to my sisters & moms for babysitting, I had to put the entire thing aasembledin the back of my SUV. That is the only thing that I did not like about the jumperoo other wise I think its the best one by far. I think its for safety reasons.

Yea you can take it off fairly quickly. Has the spring pins in the bar to detach the top quickly or you can take the base assembly off in about minute.

You can leave it on but you can't open the trunk while it's installed. Also, being a _portable_ rack it is easy to steal. But it's giving me great service!

Totally. If your trunk is large, like a minivan trunk (like mine) then you don't even need to take the wheels off. If your trunk is smallish, you may need to take the wheels off (maybe 30 seconds) and then the whole thing folds to like 4 inches thick. It's ridiculous.

It is very easy to remove; I never leave mine on the car when not transporting bikes.The wrench you need is included, and I would estimate no more than 10 minutes to remove it from the car.

To remove the rack from the car, you first release the safety pin by pulling outward. Then you unlock and unscrew a handle that loosens the expanding mechanism inside of the hitch receiver. At this point, the entire rack can be wiggled out of the receivet easily. When it comes out of the receiver, you have the full weight of the rack to carry so just be ready. You can get a good grip on the top of the unit as well as the swing away arm on the bottom. Of course never try to take it off with a bike attached or with it in the swung open position!

Hello. I use this rack on my KIA Sportage and am able to still open the trunk.

Depending on the year of your car, you either just have to pull on the lower air box until it pops out or remove the wheel on that side, get under the car and take all the plastic shielding apart to find the other side of the bolt where the nut is and then unscrew it. It should be hidden by the tube that bring air into the air box. Just undo a few screws to remove that as well.

Remove the bungees immediately! Then get 2 bungee cords and cross them thru the handle on top of the rack. To remove, just unhook the bungees. Easy on, easy off.

I leave mine up but the few times I have had to remove it I didn't have a problem. Attachments are easy enough to undo and I have installed and taken out by myself with no help.

I have a toyota avalon and it fit in my trunk and you will need to remove I believe one or two setting pins to disengage the tension to put in trunk, but is easy to put together.

You don't have to remove the plumbing, you just have to disconnect from the return line, remove the handle, and then the top (16 nuts, bolts, washers), in that order. Seat the large top gasket properly before closing, so you don't get leaks. The whole job takes maybe an hour. If you lose a fastener, remember to replace with aluminum.

I haven't taken it off yet but I think you can. It just hangs there on the two brackets. Just lift back up and it should unhook right off

I found the easiest way is to lay it down and then pull the entire leg and wheel assembly off together. The top was too heavy for me to easily lift off. I generally wheel it to my car, lay the top part in the back, and then pull the wheel/leg assembly off. I reconnect it the same way - slide the bar on and then tilt it onto the wheels and stand it up. My car has a hatchback - it would be more difficult with a conventional trunk.
