I made myself a Topcase, just for vacation or long trips with 2 up.
Original topcase contains just 38 liters and my new one is 60 liters.
As i already changed my Original exaust for an aftermarket one i also saved some kilogramms.
Original exaust is 8,4 kg and the aftermarket one is 3,3 kg.
So, that makes 5 kg's difference, which would allow me imo to carry a little more Luggage with me. But i will not store haevy stuff in the topcase, just a lot of light stuff.
It is also not suitable for high speed rides on the motorway/highway, bust just made for nice countryroads. I hate motorways/highways and for my tours i use just the nicer backways.
I agree, it is not the most beautifull one, but it is for sure a practical/functional one.
Last week i tested the topcase while my wife and me made a weektour to Berlin.
We did partly highway and for the rest backroads and all was very stable up to 130 km/h.
During this testride we got a lot of rain and the topcase is pretty tight, but before we started i also drilled 4 little holes in the bottom for draining the water if it might come in.
Enjoy the pics.
