RC 300h F-sport - roof bars?

[mgd28]

I almost purchased an RC 300h F-sport, but then couldn't find roof bars to carry canoe.

Can you fit roof bars to the RC?

Lexus dealership salesman said yes, but I'm not convinced at the moment.

I've used a Seasucker mini-bomber for my bikes for 7 years. It is brilliant, though not cheap.

Their website suggests they do also Monkey Bars, which might fit the bill for a canoe

I’ve seen an RC with roof bars for skis, so, although I don’t know the brand or specifications, I confirm that they can be fitted.  Therefore I suggest you keep looking.

Thanks for the quick response, really helpful. The Monkey Bars look like they would do the job. I was a bit concerned about using suction cups, but if you've been using them for 7 years I guess they must work.

Thanks for taking the time to answer. I'm going to have a harder look at the seasucker monkey bars.

Yes, I'm am very pleased how long they have lasted. The set even came with a spare suction cup, which I've not yet needed.

If you get them, I'd suggest you clean the roof and the cups before each use, and wet the cups slightly. This should all be in the instructions.

Thanks; I love the red and had it on my ISF too, except it was called Mesa Red in those days.

...or do you mean the bike? I had it painted in homage to Tom Walkinshaw's racing XJS

I too had a Mesa Red ISF, loved it.

Not so into bikes so can’t comment on the colour scheme though it certainly looks good!
